1968 BMW 1600 GT Coupe
An exceptionally rare and stylish grand tourer, this 1968 BMW 1600 GT represents a unique chapter in BMW’s heritage, where Italian design met German engineering. Originally crafted by Maggiora with a Frua-designed fastback body, the 1600 GT merged Glas’s original concept with BMW’s signature drivetrain refinements, making it a collectible fusion of artistry and performance.
This example is beautifully finished in its original Granada Red over Black vinyl upholstery and has undergone a meticulous restoration by European marque specialists, Oldenzaal Classics of the Netherlands. It is one of only 1,259 units ever produced and among very few known examples in the U.S.
Top features include:
1.6L BMW 4-cylinder engine producing 103 horsepower
4-speed manual gearbox with rear-wheel drive
Frua-designed fastback body with BMW styling updates including kidney grille and taillights from the 1602
Front disc brakes and independent rear suspension for refined handling
14” chrome wheels with BMW hubcaps and period-correct radio
Perforated headliner, metric VDO gauges, wood-rimmed steering wheel
Fully restored to factory specs by Oldenzaal Classics
Includes German-language owner's manual, German ownership/restoration records, and two sets of keys
With its low production numbers, standout design, and expert restoration, this 1600 GT is an ideal addition to any serious BMW or classic European car collection.
