BMW 3.0 CSL Hommage R Makes European Debut

Alongside the number of classic sports cars and luxury cars on display at the 2015 Chantilly Arts & Elegance Richard Mille was this; the BMW 3.0 CSL Hommage R Concept. Fresh off its world debut at the Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance last month in California, Sunday marked the vehicle’s European premiere.

As the BMW 3.0 CSL Hommage R Concept is based around the ‘regular’ Hommage Concept, it features all the same crazy and eye-catching design elements. It does feature a few bespoke components however. For starters, it is painted in a shade dubbed Brilliant White and has been adorned with a BMW racing livery. Elsewhere, a set of lightweight gold alloy wheels have been installed while the front features a bolder splitter and revised kidney grilles.

In the cabin, the Hommage R Concept also includes some custom parts. For example, a set of racing-inspired carbon fibre seats have been fitted alongside six-point racing harnesses. Also found inside is a carbon fibre roll cage, white leather upholstery and wooden trim throughout. Finishing up the customisations is a steering column mounted display showing vital track and car information, a fire extinguisher and an emergency engine off switch.
