i think it looks like ass, and a crappy rip-off of the carrera gt. however, the numbers are pretty impressive, and it's a bargain price for a supercar. it'd be interesting to see what else is release and developed in the next one and a half years.

i caught wind of this car in a segment of the new "fifth gear" episode. they did a story on an ultra-exclusive, 20 member by invitation only supercar club based in scottsdale. they had already put down a deposit and order for this car.

It does look like ass, and it's a rather old concept.

I thought BMW said it could be a new "M-1" or 8 series.

needs to be coupe, and the exhaust needs to exit thru those holes below the taillights.

Doesn't look anything like the GT, but I agree it's pretty gay looking.

5/2/2006 7:52:10 PM

holy ugly

5/2/2006 8:33:04 PM

WTF i think it's hot as hell

I dont like the rear view (it's the gaping holes I think) nearly as much as the front, though

I'm gonna start saving money, beginning tomorrow.

5/2/2006 8:47:10 PM

front is ok

back is shitty

5/2/2006 8:56:28 PM

back looks like a murcielago, front is beautiful

5/2/2006 8:59:10 PM

i just thought the side air scoops, the wheels, the double humps over the engine bay, and the high situated taillights were reminiscent of the carrera gt.

however, i guess it looks more like the gallardo spyder

5/2/2006 9:01:16 PM

yeah back is shitty, everything else is cool

5/2/2006 10:39:37 PM

I dunno, it looks pretty fun

5/2/2006 10:57:27 PM

The real problem, along with every other fucking BMW except MAYBE the Z4, is it doesn't bear any resemblance to a damn BMW. I hope their lead designers are led out, shot and quartered before they bring any more shame to the BMW badge.

5/2/2006 11:16:04 PM

I think the front looks pretty decent, but dont like the back at all.

FYI: A new BMW will be releases Sept. 19 i believe, i know what it is and have seen it, but ya'll will just have to wait and see...ah the perks of working for BMW are already showing...

5/2/2006 11:30:58 PM

thats what im talking about

5/2/2006 11:33:44 PM

are you referring to the new z4, because that was already discussed in the garage. or are you talking about the new 3 series?

btw, tell your boss to tell his boss to tell his boss to tell his boss to tell his boss to redesign the z10, and give us more specs on it. k? thanks.


btw, unless you're working with the design team or the hq, you don't really get any more scoops than any of us can by watching some shows, reading some press, or searching any one of the thousands of enthusiasts' websites.

^ nope, not a z4, or on the z4 platform at all....or 3 series for that matter

Its already leaked, im sure u can find it if you want.

5/2/2006 11:41:54 PM
