Kind of looks like a black F430 to me in that shot Pauly. Kind of. __________________ | | | | | 04-30-2008, 05:19 AM | #13 | | Senior Member Join Date: Mar 2008 Location: Omaha, NE Posts: 737 |

The rear is interesting to say the least. I love the dual badge placement on the back though, like on the original M1. As new and such as this car is (even as a concept), I'd still rather have an M1. Always loved those and they're really a piece of history. Justin | | | | | 04-30-2008, 05:58 AM | #14 | | Senior Member Join Date: Jun 2006 Location: Boston, MA Posts: 1,152 |
Great news to see BMW bringing back the M1 after the 6 success. Bad news is the 1 series won't be called the M1 even if BMW makes a ///M version. | | | | | 05-06-2008, 08:11 PM | #15 | | Senior Member Join Date: Jan 2008 Location: San Diego Posts: 340 |
