Description
BMW M 50 Years of the Ultimate Driving Machines celebrates the 50th anniversary of these legendary German performance cars, detailing both its production and motorsport stories with expert commentary and fascinating photography.
Born from BMW's racing credibility, the M division was launched in 1972 to support the company's growing racing program. This led to the creation of limited-edition, high-performance production cars, with the M1 supercar being the first in 1978. Tested and tuned at the Nürburgring, BMW's M cars are renowned for their handling and performance, making them true "driver's cars".
Over the years, the range of M models has expanded to include coupes, convertibles, sedans, and high-performance X-series M SUVs, such as the M2, M3, M4, M5, and M8. Early M cars like the M1 and late 1980s M3 and M6 are now highly sought after by collectors, commanding premium prices. With decades of racing and production success, BMW's M cars continue to thrive, reaching their 50th anniversary in 2022.
