The BMW Concept Touring Coupe has been revealed, showcasing a stunning example of a shooting brake body design. While Ferrari has impressed us with their shooting brake cars, BMW has now become the center of attention. Ever since the car was unveiled at the Villa d'Este Concorso d'Eleganza, it has been creating a buzz in the automotive industry.

Following the unveiling of the BMW Concept Touring Coupe, the luxury German automaker has reported receiving inquiries from potential buyers within a day. However, BMW Group's design director, Adrian van Hooydonk, has clarified that the concept is currently a unique model and not intended for mass production. He did mention that there is a possibility for the car to be produced in limited quantities if there is significant interest, potentially around 50 units. Motor1 quoted Hooydonk as saying that while there are no concrete plans for production, they are open to considering it based on demand.

The design of the BMW Concept Touring Coupe is derived from the BMW Z4, taking inspiration from 1940s racing cars, according to the automaker. It showcases the eye-catching shooting brake body style reminiscent of certain Ferrari models. The previous release of the Z3 M Coupe in 2001 received mixed reviews in terms of design, failing to make a significant impact. However, the current concept model could be seen as a potential spiritual successor to the Z3 M Coupe, offering an improved and impressive design.

Interestingly, the BMW Concept Touring Coupe showcases a distinct Sparkling Lario exterior paint scheme, which includes a brown base color with embedded blue glass flakes, as claimed by the automaker. Enhancing the overall color scheme, the car features silver bronze accents and a redesigned grille with vertical bars. Rolling on 20-spoke alloy wheels, the concept car utilizes 19-inch wheels at the front and 20-inch wheels at the rear.
