Those wheels are absolutely gorgeous- and those red LEDs shining through the black tarp look so mean! Can't wait.

Wow, a car wrapped in black plastic garbage bags. That is sooo much classier than a car on concrete blocks in front of a shack!

I hope the guys that designed the car have more imagination than the guys hiding it.

that is going to be the Z9, a MB SL fighter. No ///M version. The nuance here is that BMWs get the M badge if they modify a regular series car.

The branding will be very much like the Z8....remember it had the S62 engine??

Who wants to bet me?

Damnn, that's really sick... the California Spyder concept, this hybrid concept you've posted, and the M1 are the most likely guesses i think...


Whichever car it is, I bet it's gonna have over 600bhp...

Given the dimensions i wouldn't dismiss the possibility of it being a mid-engined beast..

Most likely a follow on to the Z8... remember BMW has stated many times before that it doesnt plan to follow in the vein of the R8...buuuutt anything is possible. I guess we will find out in a couple of days!
