Taking its event celebration on next Tuesday (24th May 2022), BMW Group Malaysia will exhibit a line of the most legendary vehicles designed for drivers from the portfolio of BMW M.

Do expect to ‘meet’ the iconic BMW M1 to the luxurious BMW M8, as the models were true pioneers of their time and within their segments having M in its DNA. 


BMW M5


Ever wonder the first car they ever work on? 

It’s the 3.0CSL. The race was created for the European Touring Car Championship and went on to dominate the championship every year from 1975 to 1979. 


BMW M1

The 3.0CSL is also the models of the first two examples of the BMW Art Cars which were painted by renowned artists Alexander Calder and Frank Stella. 

However, the first car that successfully debuted on 1978 was BMW M1. With only 456 units manufactured, the 6-cylinder in-line engine BMW M1 was crowned Germany’s fastest road-going sports vehicle (264.7km/h).
