that thing is ugly. there is no heritage behind that god awful creation, just something designed to hopefully appeal to the mass market.

Lets not forget its a concept. Its still got to be approved by the road transport athority.

Then there is BMWs latest commercial in Australia where they state that they are trying to get more power with less fuel consumption, and i can tell you now the way that thing is design it wont be doing that moto any justice.

They still have hours to spend in the wind tunnel developing an aero dynamic body.

As for the engine i would like to see them bring in a M spec 6L v12 with like 650-700 hp oh yeh!

I will be shitted off if they don't put a clutch and gearshift in as standard, fu*k the lasy a$$ sequentual or padel im not a F*#KEN fairy!!! Drive a car like a man!

and +20000

I hate SMG, only because I get bored driving it. There is a performance benefit, but I'd rather have the slower, traditional gearbox.

In a mid-engined body that big, I'd be okay with an all-motor V12, but if it's an I-6, I'd like to see a nice big turbo. I think it's a brilliant idea as well. I-6 turbo: very fuel efficient when you stay out of boost, very responsive to sudden throttle movement, very torquey, and incredible peak power. I'll bet if BMW designed it with a 3.x liter I-6 turbo, they could easily design it to have 600hp and 600lb-ft of torque. The real challenge for them would be making such a motor pass emmissions, but BMW has been a long-time innovator of automotive technology, so I beleive they could find a way of doing it.
