Add some Italian
styling with some German engineering and you are in for surprise, a car as sexy
as the BMW Zagato Coupe Concept.
BMW announced their
partnership with the legendary Italian styling house Zagato at the Concorso
d’Eleganza Villa d’Este. The one-off Zagato Coupe is undeniably a beauty,
blending the DNA of two accomplished companies for a hand-crafted creation that
will look right at home out at the banks of Lake Como.
The BMW Zagato Coupe
is the hottest in a line of BMW collaborations with Italian styling houses. The
first alliance between the two companies was in 1939 with the creation of the
first BMWs sporting custom-built Italian metalwork, a coupe based on the BMW 328
for the upcoming race season.
The aerodynamically
optimized Zagato Coupe is fully road-registered for use in Germany and has even
undergone high-speed testing at the German automaker’s own test facility. On
all four corners of the Zagato Coupe are 19-inch, five-spoke wheels with a
classy design. Details such as the extremely long bonnet, double bubble roof
and Kamm Tail are visually striking Zagato hallmarks that give the car a unique
and straight away recognizable character.
