The BMW Mille Miglia Concept takes inspiration from the ’40s-era 328 Coupe.
The Concept Coupe Mille Miglia 2006 is neither a copy of a successful racing car nor is it being used as a herald for future series models. Rather, the two-seater pays homage to the outstanding achievements of those engineers who helped BMW gain a leading position in racing sports and in automobile engineering decades ago.
Although the styling is based on a 60 year old car, there are plenty of upto date features. The odd looking headlights are actually a collection of LEDs, while the body was created using Carbon Fibre Reinforced Plastic (CFRP).
Power for the concept comes in the form of a 3.2L straight six lifted from the M3. Power is transferred to the road via those specially designed 20-inch rims wrapped in 245/40 R 20 rubber.
Batmobile-tastic!
