Since 1929, the Concorso d’Eleganza Villa d’Este in Lake Como, Italy, has been one of the premier places in the world to showcase vintage cars and wow-worthy concepts. BMW brought its A-game this year with the BMW 3.0 CSL Hommage, a tip of the hat to one of the automaker’s finest sports coupes from the 1970s.
The exterior, built mostly with carbon fiber and soaked in “Golf Yellow,” works in a few styling cues from both the past and the current 6 Series, with a large grille, rear haunches, and robust creased fenders that wrap around to the massive rear wing, all with sweeping gentle curves. The laser headlights feature X-shaped centers that are reminiscent of old racecars, and just look awesome. Interior highlights include quilted racing bucket seats and a V-shaped, roll cage-like cross-member in the back.
