This is what the new BMW Supercar could look like?

Interesting BMW M1 Supercar Design Concept. It looks great if they did something like this.

Doesn't look much like a BMW to me. The M1 did. This, dunno. Meh.

Yeah I see what you mean. The front is better, BUT...

Those kidney grilles look more Fisker Karma than BMW. I mean really, how big do they need to be? You lose them in the front fascia. And lower air ducts and dams look like an afterthought. The whole design fights itself visually, cluttered and cramped.

This is NOT what a BMW super sports car should look like.

Finally figured out what was bothering me about it. Side profile looks like a stretched out 2005 Pontiac GTO. Maybe it's just me. That is NOT a compliment.

Other than the stickers, there's nothing that says "BMW" to me. Looks like a generic supercar circa 2004

BMW and Supercar can never be said in the same sentence.
