I would expect BMW M should announce when the car is released unlike the porker XM that BMW M was radio silence about a ring lap time—just the rear M lounge and sculpture roof light effects 😴

I don't know…I dislike the front end in this prototype. Maybe I'm just used to the G82 now.

Now this along with the M4 CSL is a proper celebration for 50 years of M! Can't wait to see the unveil!

Hoping this happens.

This generation is staying around longer than normal. It will need some kind of update.

I haven't been following that closely but I hope this car is a lot more special than what I see and hear in that video for the estimated asking price.

Those grills are fire! Is this where the buck tooth grills are going to on the M3/M4? If so, my next ride will surely be an M3 Comp.

I have a feeling now that M3/M4 production was extended a couple years and they said there will be a full LCI soon, this may become the standard grill on them like it always should have been.

Gonna make me made though as my M3 arrives in 5-7 weeks. Granted I Don't want to play the "what if" game and deprive myself of this amazing car. Will be nice dropping 600 lbs from my X3MC, best diet ever.

It doesn't matter who; they were all sold before they even announced the existence of the car

I think this design would have worked better on a shorter chassis more in keeping with the original. Pricing is crackers. I do like the kidneys way more than what we are getting now.

Well nothing has been announced officially yet and my guess is a euro only car but who knows.

For 600-800K, this is what it absolutely should have been. BMW missed an opportunity.
