1975 BMW 3.0 CSL Gr. 5  

Overview

Built as a homologation special so the car could participate in the European Touring Car Championship, with the ‘L’ standing for ‘light’, which was a change for the automaker, because in every other instance, it meant ‘long’. With its striking looks, the CSL is still revered today, and as a result, the first two BMW Art cars, one by Alexander Calder and the other by Frank Stella, were both 3.0 CSLs.
