BRAVO! Hopefully we will see the concept before the end of this year. I did remember reading on GCZ that the next gen 1series and new Z2 will be quite edgy.

I love this concept and I would probably buy one assuming the pricepoint is right. But I wonder, in this economic climate, do you guys think a small roadster like this would sell? I'm already worried about the Z4 selling. Either way, if BMW did produce this car I would likely buy one.

Wow that thing is funky.
I bet it would sell. Think of the EPA ratings. And it would be an autocrossers dream if its actually light like they are saying. |

Definitly!!! I like the forward facing front grill like the 507 and the 1970s BMWs. This car also reminds me of the mille concept car they put out that was a mix of the z4 and old BMWs of past. I have to say I love the thin headlamps too, but I could see alot of controversy with that. But so what, I think the overall package as working very well and a success for BMW on the books.
They just have to keep the car lightweight, easier said then done! |

that looks ridiculous , instead of making a SL and CL rival and a true supercar like SLR and Carrera GT , they are making stuff that no one is paying attention to anymore , a honda s2000 and mazda mx look alike mini stuff.....horrible a true horror Ill say

The weight should really be in check too. I mean the base 2010 Z4 comes in at 3214. It would be really sad if BMW couldnt make a 2900lb little roadster. An MX-5 comes in around 2500lb...I think.
