    My head says BMW is trying to hard - the 2002 Turbo is simply elegant. No aggressive cuts, swooshes, curves and what not to get your attention. But my heart, oh my heart! [IMG]https://media.giphy.com/media/ighbPR8343lL2/giphy.gif[/IMG]

    Here's a couple of more of them parked next to each other.

This was BMW’s first turbocharged production car. It produced 170hp @ 5,800rpm and 240Nm of peak torque which made it too fast for its time. Sadly, the 2002 Turbo was launched just before the 1973 oil crisis and as a result died a quick death with only 1,672 units being built.[IMG]http://www.topgear.com/sites/default/files/styles/16x9_929w/public/news-listicle/image/21_05_design_speech_l1053216.jpg?itok=CiEUUmgq 929w[/IMG]

    Finally, some pictures of the 2002 Hommage next to the 2002 Turbo. I think BMW has got the reimagined 2002 spot-on. What do you think?
