BMW 3.0 CSL Hommage Concept World-Exclusive First Drive - Automobile
So please allow us to whet your appetite by taking the near full-size two-seater around the block, literally speaking: The only location where we could drive the unregistered, hand-built canary yellow coupe were the private grounds of Villa Erba,... Despite these restrictions, the first encounter with the stunning reinvented “Batmobile” deserves 10 out of 10 points on my personal show-car hit scale. The doors open wide and the cabin is unexpectedly spacious, but sliding down into the cockpit requires extra care because the solid-looking carbon-fiber sills are actually wafer thin and the seat frame is made of fragile small-diameter aluminum... Alloy-capped pedals as well as plenty of bright yellow stitching and piping offset the predominantly black environment. The shiny steering wheel is an intriguing mix of a race-car helm and motorcycle handlebars. Armed with numerous (nonfunctional) controls, the assembly protrudes from the dashboard on a delta-wing panel. it ends so close to the driver’s chest that you must angle your arms like a DTM racer.
