BMW brought the 3.0 CSL racer at Detroit
Besides the BMW 6-Series facelift models and the M Performance Parts for the BMW 2-Series, the German carmaker also decided to showcase one of their classic models that made history.
We talk about the BMW 3.0 CSL racing car in a beautiful M livery on top of a white paint. This model won the 1973 European Touring Car Championship as well as the Le Mans series in the same year (class victory).

Weighing only 1,102 kilograms, the BMW 3.0 CSL is powered by a 3.2-liter engine producing 344 horsepower but there’s also a more potent 3.5-liter unit delivering 430 horses.

At the exterior, it stands out thanks to a wide body kit with new bumpers, side air vents and a rear wing.

With this been said, be sure to check the photo gallery for a closer look at the special BMW 3.0 CSL, a model built between 1968 and 1975.
