^hahaha. Nope. But I always think it has Porsche 550 similarities.

And I thought this one was easy since I chose a good pic that showed the badge instead of a tiny B&W side-shot.

So I will give a hint on Monday if no-one gets it..

Okay a broad hint:
This type of car was campaigned successfully by Hans Stuck in Hillclimbs.
That should be enough to find it. 8)

i went scouring the BMW archives of different cars

anyway, its the 700 RS... nice car :)
