*opening new saving account, named burning tires, while watching the videos.

2000 usd montly from now until 2027, that should get me tires thru 2027…

This thing will be wild, love the front. The taillights sits a little high maybe, but will reserve judgement. The fenders, the vents, the diffuser are cool. The panoramic display seems promising with the risk of being too much, center screen, touch screen are not great in general, not just in this car.

It is actually questionable if we normal people should be allowed to drive this on public roads

The rear reminds me even more of the Alfa Romeo 155.

Clear showcase of the ease for which EVs can deliver hypercar performance. Just astonishing!

Let the future come!
When I saw that, I thought, the staff at Tire Rack are rejoicing over this spec!,...."Lets get ready to sell some tires guys!"

Please keep those electric motor sounds in production. That is by far the best sounding EV from an interior perspective I've heard. I'm pretty sure if you asked me as a child what an electric car would sound like, that is exactly what I would have imagined.

Ka-ching, ka-ching, ka-ching. Tire dealers like Tire Rack and others are going to LOVE these things! Me, not so much, I think I'll just keep my IOMG G82 manual M4 instead.

I am getting recollections of Tron.

I think I much prefer electric sounds than fake gas burning sounds. I also like being able to turn all sounds off.

But this looks bonkers. It is. And it’s quite funny reading 4 pages of comments which are the opposite of any other NK general thread.

I'm really digging this look.
So BMW and so futuristic at the same time.
Also twice the power of Enzo

Wow. Wonder what it'll be like in a production M, but this is pretty great to see.

Small aside: Really digging the front lights flowing into the faux grill space, as a single cohesive unit, more than I expected (some of those early camo photos had me cringing). Seems like a really good play on the space when you don't actually need a grill in the EV world but it's such a key look of your brand (and you still actually want one there for the ICE models). I've been missing the iconic circular lamps, but this could be a great new look if it goes into production.

Really don’t get the point of doing camo since it won’t be going into production.

Maybe it is the iM3?

Looks like new design could start looking beautiful soon. Looking forward. Hope we get a hybrid M3 and EV M3 so all can choose what they like. With taxes in Europe at least, pure ICE isnt gonna happen, so here is to figuring out a value prop that works for all. And of course, I hope BMW doesnt turn into BejingW at some point and is successful enough to have good profits and product pipeline in future.

It's not. The full reveal of this concept car will be later this spring.
The M3 will look different, but with the same design elements.

Look at the bright side, it may be expensive at launch, but in a year or 2 it will be less than a new base Camry.

Because, ya know, that stellar EV depreciation curve.
