Now I know why. I loved that Trans Am when I was a little kid.

Can't wait to see the interior as well.

I want one: heard the price will be about $130k. Time to liquidate and start piling up cash.

$130,000??? If I were in the market for this kind of vehicle I'd get the Cayman GT4 instead.

If you can find one

Blindside_137 · 08-13-2015, 10:26 PM

This is a concept people it's supposed to grab attention. I'm not in love with it but some of it is awesome.

Why are we complaining, BMW is giving us a GTS let's enjoy it

bluekn8286 · 08-13-2015, 10:26 PM

Aside from the wheels, everything else looks pretty good.

My parents had one when i was kid, during the whole smokey and the bandit craze.

did you ever notice the m3/m4 incorporates several of the styling points of that gen of trans am:

hold bulge/shaker hood
quad exhaust
side vents
4 headlights merge into grill
rear spoiler integration

now the wheels

we just need a screaming chicken option.

Actually those aren't LED tail lights. They are OLED tail lights and it's kind of old news. They debuted those a while ago on an M4 lighting concept car.

F80NJM3 · 08-13-2015, 10:36 PM

Yuck. Not feeling this at all.

Ashley Schaeffer BMW · 08-13-2015, 10:39 PM

Can BMW just sell the ///M division already??

04RC51 · 08-13-2015, 10:39 PM

Most of the hate is from people who have zero interest in buying it and are making themselves feel better.

Car looks great! Just hope they price it right for the U.S.!

I know that. Who could've missed all the coverage a few months ago about taillights.

BMW releases a track focused car and OLED taillights is one of the main highlights of the car.

yawn

MistaVauros · 08-13-2015, 10:43 PM

OMG! NO! What was BMW thinking with these design choices?! I understand that this is just a concept/pre-production model, but that front lip and wheels are horrendous. I had my hopes set on putting down a deposit for one of these, but if the production model retains a portion of these styling cues I'll pass. Hell, even if they completely nail the styling for the production model, I'd rather spend $130K on a Porsche.

Damn, BMW, what's really going on these days?

Most of the people have zero interest because this car is a joke. Enjoy your BMW Hot Wheels Edition!!!

Bizarre to me as well. To me, that hood is where it's at. The wheels are trans-am wheels.

M3sicko · 08-13-2015, 10:48 PM

love the hood, tails and can prob live with that lip but wheels and wing gotta go. The wing this time around doesnt look proper on the car compared to the E9x version IMO. Oh love that paint too

M4 LF · 08-13-2015, 10:52 PM

Ya I'm not feeling this one at all. Wheels are horrible, rear wing screams rice, front lip worse than current aftermarket options, and those horrible wheels. Maybe the rear lights will look more interesting than they are standing still.

M3 Esq · 08-13-2015, 10:53 PM

The hood is the tits and I love the race car like air vent in the front. But a gray concept car? Wtf? It just looks boring.

Yeah, I don't think so! As they all thumb through the part numbers hoping to make their F8X into a fake GTS.

F83 · 08-13-2015, 10:58 PM

Looks nice to me except for the wheels and wing but.... $130k? Better be lots going on beyond cosmetics.

Just a reminder to some people, 666M is what will be available on the Competition Pack M3/M4
