BMW introduced the world to their M1 Homage concept at the Villa d'Este Concours d'Elegance. The vehicle rested along side the original design created during the late 70s and early 1980s. It was also positioned beside the Turbo Concept of the early 1970s.

The M1 was a radical departure from the front-engined, rear-wheel drive configuration of its prior vehicles. It also had to compete with the legacy of the vehicle it was replacing, the highly successful 3.0 CSL. The M1, also known as the 'Mid-Engined BMW M1 Project E26, was started in 1976 and completed four years later. Giorgio Giugiaro of Ital Design was tasked with creating the design while Lamborghini handled the construction and manufacturing.

Official details on the M1 Homage are expected shortly which should give an indication as to the direction and official plans for the vehicle. The car will officially be unveiled by Auto Bild and BMW within a few days.
