BMW T1 Motorsport

About the concept:
BMW T1 Motorsport is a supercar devoted to BMW’s Motorsport success…
After many years of success on the motor track and plenty of models who won any kind of sport event in the world, BMW hasn’t produced anything like a car to celebrate it, yet? Why? When cars like Ferrari, Lamborghini and Porsche didn’t exist yet, BMW already won plenty of victories at that time and proved to be a great company inspired from the competition. Unfortunately not many people are familiar with the countless victories BMW scored on the race track.
So I decided, car to commemorate the BMW’s Motorsport glory is needed…
I planned the car more like GT vehicle at the beginning, then project turned to be a proper V12 Mid-Engine supercar. The BMW T1 Motorsport is in plain white colour, with racing stickers including the M-Power motorsport stripes. Exhaust pipes on the back-top of the car just above the suspension and the engine bay – like the Formula 1 cars.
One of the main features of the car is the top panel of the car, where the front windscreen is integrated. The wider the doors are opened, the higher the panel lifts up to ensure easy access to the interior of the vehicle. When the carbon-fibre panel is closed, the whole carbon-fibre monocoque chassis works as a single shell.
The interior of the “Ultimate Driving Machine” is inspired by mechanical components, It is balanced between innovation, design and functionality. The entire interior is in white & blue colours.
BMW T1 Motorsport is produced in 499 units. 400 units available for the market, 99 units factory homologated for racing activities.

Unique looking car you have designed there. And great idea to commemorate the BMW’s Motorsport glory. I as a BMW fanatic and even beyond that I have to say BMW isn’t a showoff like Aston Martin, Ferrari, Lamborghini and Porsche or Mercedes Benz. The essence of racing and Team work are the priority for them. They tried with the M1 but People just cant see BMW building super cars. Which they do but just in a fantastic unique way. Building cars like the BMW M3 GTR that makes a SLR look like a useless overrated super car on the Race Track. Like the Designing and everything but its sadly just not BMW line…..You should have studied BMW designing infrastructure more and Banglers Way of thinking and designing. Its provocative/ different. It’s a love it or hate it designing art. This what you got here its so babish looking But still great!

We succeed only as we identify in life, or in war, or in anything else, a single overriding objective, and make all other considerations bend to that one objective.

Yay! all of us come to an agreement with some thing! What are your own emotions on the M? BMW whored out M same as Mercedes did with AMG. Whatever took place to producing vehicles fast that were worth a damn? What person would like a 4500lb pig with 500 h . p .?
