1972 BMW 3.0 CSi & 1987 BMW M6 by Ronnie Fieg

As part of Kith’s 15th anniversary celebration, the brand reunites with BMW for the fourth chapter of their ongoing partnership to create a multifaceted collection of apparel, accessories, and bespoke automobiles, including Ronnie Fieg’s 1972 BMW 3.0 CSi and 1987 BMW M6 E24.

Across each of their four chapters, Kith and BMW have told a color story rooted in celebrating the iconic automotive brand’s archive. Their collaborative palette includes the M3 E30’s signature Cinnabar Red, the Kith-developed Vitality Green, the elusive Techno Violet, and now the enthusiast-heralded Inka Orange. Originally introduced in 1971 on the 02 Series, Inka Orange became the defining color of BMW’s formative sporting years in the early 1970s. Initially created as a high-visibility color for inclement conditions, the vibrant hue became the perfect way to highlight the dramatically redesigned proportions of BMW’s cars as the marque evolved into a world-class performance brand. Although the color has gradually disappeared over time, it represents an integral chapter in BMW’s history and has earned a revered status among collectors around the world.

Paying homage to this iconic color, Ronnie Fieg designed a one-of-one bespoke version of the car that is inextricably linked to Inka Orange—the 3.0 CSi. Using a 1972 BMW 3.0 CSi as the foundation, Fieg and BMW oversaw a complete frame-off restoration, with the body stripped to bare metal before being KTL-treated and repainted. The car was meticulously rebuilt using original components sourced from various BMW archives, including the M30 Big Six engine, transmission, rear axle, suspension, brakes, and more. The custom caramel leather interior features an embossed Kith monogram throughout, complemented by fully restored instrumentation and wood trim.

When production of the 3.0 CSi’s E9 chassis concluded in 1975, BMW introduced the E24 6 Series. As a nod to the 3.0 CSi’s direct descendant, Ronnie Fieg also designed a one-of-one bespoke 1987 BMW M6 E24. Bridging two generations of BMW grand tourers, Fieg applied the iconic Inka Orange paint color to this model as well. The M6 underwent a complete rotisserie restoration that preserved the car’s original character while incorporating Kith design details and discreet modern enhancements. Like the 3.0 CSi, the M6’s body was stripped to bare metal and fully rebuilt, including its S38 inline-six engine, Getrag 5-speed manual transmission, differential, suspension, brakes, OEM BBS Style 5 wheels, and more. The interior continues the color story, crafted from caramel leather and finished with an embossed Kith monogram throughout.

Both bespoke models represent the next chapter in Kith and BMW’s ongoing color story and serve as the central inspiration for the larger collection.
