BMW Classic - Our Brands. Our Stories. Japan – Masakuni Hosobuchi's BMW M Collection
![]() Featured on BIMMERPOST.com According to BMW Group Classic, Mr. Hosibuchi is the owner of the largest privately-held collection of BMW M cars in the world. Some of you may remember the time when Hosobuchi went to the BMW Welt to pick up a BMW M1 Procar. He was already known to have owned every single model of BMW M cars up to that point. Of course, his collection is not limited to just BMW M cars. Worth noting among his collection is a one-off BMW "M7", which was produced by BMW Individual specifically for Hosobuchi, and a BMW Z1. ![]() In this latest video of BMW Classic's Youtube series "Our Brands. Our Stories.", Hosobuchi shares his story on camera. Quote:
More in this series: Jason Cammisa and his 325i (E30)

They haven't been a myth for quite some time now. The pair of E66 are more impressive personally since they're both skunkworks M7's but totally different from each other.

The red E38 was built for the 1996 Tokyo Motor Show and the interior pattern is done by the Japanese designer Hanae Mori.
I always wondered about this car. Does it have anything under the hood besides the original N73? I hope E60 M5 grills, exposed exhaust tips and some BMW M GmbH badging doesn't make it a "one-off M7" |

Buchi has both E66's. The white one is RHD, 4.8TT V8 with 406kw, and no visual clues as to what's underneath. Black one is LHD, E61 M5 Touring underpinnings and has the exterior mods.

Is the white one 750Li based? Where can I read more about them? I've seen the original article from where these photos were taken, I've seen the buildsheet for the black E66, but nothing else is known to me about these cars.

No, the black one is based on the 760Li, of that I'm sure 100%. The photos can't be from earlier than June 2006, cause that is when the black 760Li was built.
