The BMW 3.0 CSL triggers memories of the first victory for the company at the 12 Hours of Sebring in 1975. The last time BMW raced an art car at Le Mans was in 2010: the striking #79 M3 GT designed by artist Jeff Koons. Then there was the M1, the first car developed by BMW for the 24 Hours of Le Mans in the eighties. The V12 LMR, was successful at Sebring but also won the 24 hours of Le Mans in 1999.
