I do believe this teaser is silly but brilliant... You've got to give some credit to the marketing division, after all it made us all waiting for the next part to be unveiled... I think this car with the fat front is gonna kick the shit out of Zondas

I'd be up for a meet unless they do ED though I suspect you may get yours first. I'm tied in to a lease until June but could come out a month early. |

The recent pictures seem to be what the test drivers described in their reviews. Not sure why everyone is surprised about the non-functional side vents.

I was considering twisting off and buying a used MCS for a beater, but damn, I better wait for this. I might actually trade my ZHP in for this...
Didn't think I'd ever say that... Or keep it as a beater and buy one for a garage queen/weekend toy... White please!

No, there wasn't any censorship, but they did say it was possible that things could change before the production version. Look again at the pictures, there isn't a vent like we described before.

From everything revealed in these pictures, it looks just like we saw it.

First off.... those front fenders are great looking... its a bulked up version of BMWs new line of design. Think new 6 series fender design. This is just a flared version of what BMW is obviously is moving towards.
Second... even if the fenders dont have real vents... Have you children forgotten about the hood Cause in one of the posted pictures you can CLEARLY see a recessed area. Either way I like what I see. My ONLY problem is with the stupid dealers that WILL over mark this car up. Think about what happened with the Shelby GT500... 47k MSRP and they were selling for $65-$72k. If that happens to this. Than the 1M will be lost of the 90% of rich people that arent very enthusiastic. |

This car is like a first pick bust. I mean come on...I've never seen that...this car has a Z4 engine it's nothing new......Bmw is targeting spoiled brats.....When they unveiled the E9X M3, X5M etc it wasn't anything close as that silly m1 unveiling and public test drive etc.

Is this on m-power.com yet? I forgot which email I used to sign up, can someone check for hi-res pics?
What else is left that can be a surprise? CF hood? CF roof? Duck Tail? (I do hope they fixed the 3rd brake light cover issue)

+1 this is an obvious (sadly) buy in to the look of the IS-F
