When we think of the
BMW M division, the 1978
M1 comes instantly to mind, followed by the E30
M3 and then the 2001-2002
M Coupe. But the company's in-house hot rod shop actually dates back to 1972, when it was formed as a subsidiary to manage the company's racing operations, dubbed
BMW Motorsport.
It was this month 40 years ago that what is known today as BMW M GmbH was launched. So to celebrate its anniversary, BMW has offloaded some 50 lustworthy images celebrating that performance history. See them all in our
gallery.
