1974 BMW 3.0 CS - Tony Stark Approved

SpeedKore, the American performance company known for its full carbon fiber vehicles and pre-preg carbon fiber body parts, has debuted its first European vehicle in the form of a 1974 BMW 3.0 CS built for Robert Downey Jr. Following a custom 1970 Ford Mustang Boss 302 and 1967 Chevrolet Camaro, the 1974 BMW 3.0 CS is the third vehicle SpeedKore has built for Downey.

The BMW build process began when Downey approached SpeedKore Vice President Dave Salvaggio with the unusual project. Downey’s unique vision for the classic BMW melded modern materials with classic European styling and SpeedKore was just the shop to accomplish the transformation.

Unlike previous SpeedKore builds, the CS features a predominantly metal body that was restored at the Grafton-based facility. However, there are a number of signature SpeedKore carbon fiber accents throughout, including the front air dam, rocker moldings and rear bumper, which are all finished in a BASF Glasurit satin clearcoat.
