The concept for the BMW art cars was introduced by Hervé Poulain, an auctioneer and ardent racing driver from France. Poulain was searching for a link between art and cars and he asked his friend and renowned artist Alexander Calder to paint a rolling canvas on the BMW 3.0 CSL that he would race in the 1975 Le Mans endurance race. Poulain’s 3.0 CSL was the first car to create a symbiosis between the world of art and the world of motorsport. Prompted by enormous enthusiasm for this work of art on wheels, BMW then decided to put its brilliant idea of establishing the Art Car Collection into practice

Not feeling it.

If it's an art car then there's really no reason for the picnic table out back.

Aside from the rear end, it looks good. I wonder what they are going to do with it

I believe it's going to compete in lemans, down force = necessary

I believe it's going to compete in lemans, down force = necessary

But it's an art car (not to be confused with Art Carr)...

[Knipps]

Ok well, initially the art cars were raced so why not leave it as the same model that's going to be raced?

[Blacdout96]

It doesn't need to be painted, it's pure sex as it is. I wish BMW would get back into the LMP class fight, infact I wish all manufacturers would. there hasent been an awesome race lineup since 1999. Toyota, BMW, Mercedes, Nissan, Panoz, and in GT Dodge, Corvette, and Porsche battling it out.
