The 3.0 CSL is a lightweight, performance-oriented version of the standard 3.0 CS/3.0 CSi coupe. Utilising the E9 platform, it was initially unveiled at the 1971 Geneva Motor Show prior to being introduced in May 1972 as an 'homologation' model for the German Touring Car Championship developed by a separate division within BMW AG that would later become known as BMW Motorsport GmbH. The CSL achieved some great results, with wins at Le Mans in the touring car class in 1973 and 1974, the IMSA GT Championship in 1975, and winning the European Touring Car Championships every year from 1973 to 1979 (apart from a minor blip in 1974).
