BMW's Touring Coupe and Shooting Brake Concepts: A Modern Twist on Classic Designs.

BMW has teased a new shooting brake concept, the Concept Touring Coupé, based on the Z4 and produced for the Concorso d’Eleganza Villa d’Este. The one-off model is powered by a turbocharged 3.0 straight-six engine and features a unique brown-grey-blue paint job, silver-bronze trim pieces, and 20-spoke alloys.

The shooting brake is inspired by the 328 Touring Coupe and the 02 Touring, and is seen as the Z4 variant BMW is missing from its lineup.
