SCOTT asked me to ask everybody for a little more patience. He's currently working on the shoots for the F11 Touring and the X3, but promised to answer all questions as soon as he returns from the shooting.
Best regards, south

Don't forget there may be more than one SCOTT (think 'g' and 't'). The same one may be answering on both sites, and maybe not... and really, all we are going to get is information that has already been posted somewhere else... I didn't see many questions that havn't been 'somewhat' posted elsewhere.

Patience people and be nice...
If everything Scott tells us is true, then we are being blessed by getting insider info months if not years before public gets it... So be patient. |

With the customization program, will the carbon fiber parts be available painted the same as the body color?
Its the internet so everyone expects answers and updates now, but the post started 3/4, it's only 3/8. It's not the end of the world and that's definitely in the realm of reasonable reason there aren't responses yet. How many times has anyone else had to put off something for 4-5 days, hell weeks! It's not Scott A, B, 1.0 2.0 or whatever's JOB to do this for us. YOU'RE A MONKEY DEREK! YOU'RE A MONKEY! |

^^^Funny thing is I read that BMW is supposedly doing away with the UDM moniker for a bit....and then right after that on Sunday while watching t.v. a BMW commercial came on that boldly proclaimed: "BMW.....the Ultimate Driving Machine" and then went on to describe the glories of the brand.....Nary a mention of "JOY"

I think we are all starting to lose it. That looks like a sketch done by a HS freshman during homeroom!

I afraid the M1 can really be canceled. Remember the M5 E34 Convertible, it needed to be shown in Geneva and they changed their mind one week before. The place was reserved but no M5 Convertible. The difference is that there was no Internet, so no leeks or rumors as we have now.

First of all apologies but unfortunately work takes place first and foremost , but I will be answering your questions left in the feedback thread.
@ BMW things are moving fast on the product front with the new BMW 5er Touring being launched in 3 weeks and then towards early summer we will see the next generation X3 Sport Activity Vehicle, in between key important launches for China the BMW 5er Li amongst others and the Premiere @ the NYIAS of the BMW 335iS amongst the US debut of the 5er Sedan , 3er Coupe and Cabrio and the X5 LCi. The sketch is my own and when I see a car for the first time in my folder of notes I make a sketch of the car and some key details so I can work on my pre-visualisation concepts for the cars respective representation. Art and Design were never my forte so I am not offended by your remarks Ok the first 10 questions: @ DmBoone Quote:
With the 1M you have to look into BMW's past to an era where such cars excelled not only on the road and is one idea under discussion for this car. As an existing project everything is basically available which helps cost absolutely , The engine is a redeveloped BMW engine which is a significant contribution allowing engineering costs to be lower and be used more to transform the car to drive - an M car is not just a series car with a faster engine , you have to transform the product so that it remains seperate from the standard car and reflective of the M Division. The car will be ready for market launch at the end of the year and sales will begin in all parts of the world in mid 2011. Quote:

This is make you're mind up time. you have seen the pictures and you have seen the video. BMW do not go to alot of this trouble as you have seen per the wheel arches , wider track and carbon roof for a iS. In a few months you will see the concrete evidence underneath typical BMW camouflage. Then we will see... Last edited by SCOTT26; 03-10-2010 at 07:30 PM.. |
