As it is about to take a leap into a new future of electric cars and M-badged SUVs, BMW revisits its past with this video that it produced about the BMW 1500 from the 1960s. The BMW 1500 was one of the BMW New Class line of compact sedans and it featured a 1,499cc single-cam engine producing 80 horsepower at 5,700rpm which was really not bad at that time. The 1500 in 1961 was also the first BMW with a Hofmeister kink. Look after the jump to watch the video.

80hp, from knot to sixty in 12.6 seconds..
.. almost equal to our grandmother engines 4g15… lolx
now i can see how bmw latest models got their trademark eyebrow signal light.
Well…. wat should i said
bugbear exactly, i was reminded of the 4g15, but the 4g15 is much more "modern"
this bmw is timeless
well.. sort off :D
this is a very handsome car
timeless indeed. every single car has its own "x-factor".
Whoa.. SO classic…
really gorgeous and soo original….luv it ! luv those super duper skinny tyres !
my late grandad had one of those (in beige i guess). At the time BMW was still a struggling manufacturer. Nevertheless, the car was a solid drive and built tough. Its wat made my grandad stick to continental cars and quality for his entire life.

The 1500 is the predecessor of the infamous 3-Series.
