Introduction to the BMW M1 Hommage Concept
The BMW M1 Hommage concept, unveiled in 2008, is a tribute to the iconic BMW M1 produced from 1978 to 1981. The original BMW M1 was a masterpiece of the 1970s, blending sports car performance and elegant design in an innovative way. The successor, the BMW M1 Hommage, captures this essence and adds modern design elements while respecting the technical and stylistic notes that made its predecessor so remarkable. The vision of the BMW M1 Hommage was brought to life by Giorgio Giugiaro and the BMW Design Team, who aimed to ensure that this concept vehicle integrates both traditional and contemporary design languages.
Details of the 1/43 Scale Model
For all model car collectors, the miniature of this concept vehicle in a scale of 1/43 is an exact replica made by Schuco from resin material. The miniature, reflecting the rigorous design and high-quality construction of the original, is owned by Modelly member "mmuellerb". This model version is adorned in a striking metallic orange paintwork that accentuates the athletic and dynamic character of the BMW M1 Hommage. Particularly noteworthy are the faithfully reproduced ventilation slits on the hood and the precisely crafted rims that perfectly complement the sporty design.
Technical Specifications of the BMW M1 Hommage
The modern interpretation of the BMW M1 Hommage is not just a feast for the eyes but also a technical marvel. The concept vehicle is equipped with a more powerful engine and is based on 2000s technology. While no specific performance data was disclosed, comparable vehicles of that time feature V8 or even V12 engines with outputs of over 500 horsepower. Technological features like modern chassis design and the use of advanced materials like carbon fiber are part of the construction. This marks the BMW M1 Hommage not only as a homage to past glory but also as a future vision of sports car excellence.
Design and Paintwork of the 1/43 Scale Miniature

The stunning metallic orange paintwork gives the miniature a special shine and highlights the precise edges and curves. The carefully replicated body lines and the detailed portrayal of the ventilation slits on the hood are clear hints of the original design. Additionally, the side mirrors, the front fascia, and the fine reproduction of the BMW logo indicate a high level of craftsmanship. These qualities make the model a coveted collector's item and a visual highlight in any model car collection.
