Description

50 years old and fit as a fiddle: Expect nothing else from BMW M, the sporty sub-brand of BMW. We celebrate this occasion by presenting seven legendary models from half a century of BMW M history.In the 50 years of its history, BMW M has put many models on the road that have gone on to become classics, legends, even icons. And all this on top of the tremendous sales successes that the BMW M models have celebrated and continue to celebrate. It seems an almost impossible task to select a mere seven of them for the landmark anniversary, because the BMW M3 CSL, BMW M Roadster and many others thoroughly deserve a place on this list too. But back to the chosen 7: Models that were ahead of their time – and perhaps still are today – have made it onto the ultimate bucket list for BMW M fans. BMW M fans are not the only ones who can look forward to this great transformation in automotive engineering. The BMW Concept XM is living proof of this. So, now the curtain rises on 7 milestones from half a century of BMW M history.
