It looks great!

As a one-off e-racecar version... why not. But as a more conventional concept with a big combustion engine? No way. BMW would be insane if they do that.

I'd imagine some tuners will try to do something similar once the i7 is around. Wonder what kind of engines you could fit in the chassis?

You do not need a massive wing to show a sport car..

it is about time BMW builds a super car.

With the new m3 power plant with KERNS electric motors adding 50hp at each wheel for a total of 600+HP would be nice

Looks cool, but how can this be a "halo" car without the M treatment ?

SCOTT hints at an ///M car at a higher price point, and theoretically, more about performance rather than saving gas.

I'd be more excited about that....

Don't really like the idea of a turbo 3 cylinder with electric motor. Whats wrong with a V8 or v10? Not sure if 3000 units that gets driven once a week will effect global warming like BMW's rest of the cash cow lines.

Better make this look good and perform on par with the R8 or 911 GT3.
