This year’s Villa d’Este concourse was kinda dominated by the BMW Zagato Coupe. Not even the Aston Martin AM310 could overshadow this glorified Z4. Designed by Zagato in collaboration with BMW’s own design team, the Coupe features an artistic design with lots of exquisite details, and a bespoke interior with black and red interior. We have to say looking at it now, the car looks much nicer than the first press pictures. It’s also got a sweet engine.

Although BMW didn’t comment on this, but this road-legal one-off is powered by a tweaked version of the twin-turbo straight-six 35is engine with 400 hp. It must have some tricksy exhausts as well because as you can hear in the video below, it sounds fabulous, especially on the overrun.
