Yesterday we showed one of BMW’s most coveted cars of the modern era – the 1M.
Here is an M creation from 3 decades ago. Built in conjunction with Lamborghini for homoloized racing purposes. Only 456 were ever made so seeing one in the flesh is a rare treat.
Awesome cars those E26’s. Ron Dennis (Ron Dennis that now runs McLaren) was quite involved in the production as well with his company Project 4 after there was a lot of problems in Italy.
Didn’t know that…very interesting tidbit!
He built all the Procars and some road cars as well. There is a great interview with him in Motor Sport Magazine there he mention this. I believe that it’s available for free on their www.
