2008 BMW M1?!
« on: 27-Apr-2008, 14:48:53 »
My apologies if this has been posted before, but I didn't read this anywhere.

Aside from the rims, I find it weirdly appealing... in an 80's KITT sort of way.  :blush:

Looks more like just some dudes 3D rendering rather then an actual concepts by BMW, especially as this hasn't been mentioned anywhere.  :?

Doesn't look too bad though. Slightly too "busy" at the back for my liking.

I just don't like the twin badges on the rear. Looks like butt-dimples.

Apparently it's a Giugiario concept. Makes sense.

some more pictures - I have to say I really like the m1 hommage car although I think that they will never put it
into production.

As said in Matteo's topic... a bit over-the-top IMO :no:

Has a bit of the RX-8 over styling syndrome... but overall, a very cool concept in tribute to the M1. I never really considered the original M1 to be beautiful, but always thought it was cool, and I feel the same about this concept.

Not looking very good. Too much edges, like in the 80's. I'm not surprised though if there comes a M1 to compete with R8.

It looks good, they're not trying to present a new car... Itis a homage to the M1 and it certainly does it's job pretty pretty well.

Hmm first time i´ve seen this car, and though it looks very 80s-ish (it is supposed to be) i quite like its aggressiveness. I doubt they'll build it in the near future though...
