Those in person real life pics make it look amazing... They are also depressing because its going to end up looking boring in comparison. If you gave me that little roadster with ~350hp or more I'd open my wallet.

production version is going to bum me out I just know it.

Dear BMW,

Stop building cars that you will never sell. It just shows us what you can do, but never will. Basically a giant FU, to us, your loyal customers.

BMW Reply: This shows customers our future thinking and design language.

Customers: Who gives a shit, if we cannot buy the car! Put that money to better use and build us cars that we love, and can purchase, this year or next.

Some things are potentially influenced by factors imposed by regulators. For example, rollover safety requirements will need to be reflected in aspects of the car such as the final design of the roll hoops and windshield frame. However, I fully agree that BMW's goal should be to have a production car that is as close to the concept as is reasonably possible.

I know you were joking, but just to be clear this is the second concept they referred to in the original press release on the subject of BMW Pebble Beach concept cars. The first was the North American debut of the Concept 8 Series.

I don?t really think they buff the marketing department and give them a bigger budget because they think they are designing shit
