I don't like the exterior too much....but the interior is much worse, especially that gearknob, is horrible!!!!

All the new BMWs have somewhat bland interiors. Personally I didn't like it after they removed the "driver oriented" center console.

I like that it looks like a more focused vehicle! Look like BMW may be taking the M3 to a level that the E30 did. Enthusiast drivers and not whore posers.

Dammit, now I gotta change my avatar!

U mean Audi looks like a BMW....just look at the new A5 coupe. They probably just bought a E92 and rebadge it.

I love this car!! :shock: It's the most aggressive ///M car to date! The rims are a little generic though... not very unique

I love it, good job BMW M division, i just hope that its as good dynamically, and that they havent 'electrified' everything to the extent that the car feels remote from the driver. I cant help thinking that mechatronics engineers are just going up their own arses in the automotive industry these days... (in short, it better have a manual box!) 8)

Yeah, what do you think will survive to the real production car?

Carbon Fiber roof? The hood vents? The CSL wheels?

I remember the M5 Concept was pretty close to the production one right? I can't remember anything being changed at least aesthetically.

I knew I remember the E92 M3 Front Bumper from somewhere:






Now did Lexus copy BMW or was it the other way around .
