"Jon Sibal does it, and he does it well" she said, with tears rolling down her face.

Sephiroth · 04-20-2010, 07:24 PM

Looks impressive!

Im still on the fence on M1 or M3, but this rendering makes a compelling argument for the 1.

amdmaxx · 04-20-2010, 07:44 PM

Looks good & awesome job Jon!

Some thinking:

And what is the image in Scott's Avatar these days?

JBW · 04-20-2010, 08:50 PM

Seriously, that is AWESOME! I picture that in black ...OMG! S.I.C.K. - SICK!

SlicktopTTZ · 04-20-2010, 08:58 PM

Looks like plenty of room for a huge intercooler and anything else they want to get airflow to. The front is a little bit too "mouth like" but I'm liking the extra aggressiveness.

Itanius · 04-20-2010, 09:03 PM

I want one.

But for your benefit it is excellent , apart from a minor exaggeration of the front intakes , which we have discussed it is extremely close to the production car.

Besides the exaggerations I assume it's also missing the latest M mirrors too?

RPM90 · 04-20-2010, 09:22 PM

Given the reactions, I guess most would buy it based soley on looks.
The concept here looks decent. But, honestly, it looks like a 135i with a different bumper and some hood and side vent treatment.
It could be better, and it probably will be, especially in the bulging fender area.
That's where I see this concept doesn't get it right.

If the performance isn't there who cares how it looks.
It may look great in a bikini, but if it's just luke warm in bed, I'd pass.

For the money BMW charge, this thing better look great and leave me sweaty and breathless waiting for the next round.

ChrisK · 04-20-2010, 09:27 PM

WOW SOLD! CAAA-CHING!

RPM90 - BMW did the same thing to a 3er and got the e46 M3.

White1 · 04-20-2010, 09:43 PM

F@*&ING SEXY

Berduderunner · 04-20-2010, 09:44 PM

I am starting to get that "Get the F out of the way" feeling about this car. Here comes an M1.

F1 Fanatikko · 04-20-2010, 11:19 PM

wow, that looks hot, no kidding, where do i sign up. bye bye 335 hello m1.

HERR FSTIR · 04-20-2010, 11:41 PM

Based on that rendering and Scott26 affirming how close it is to the actual car, I am ready to put down a deposit.

I would love to see the same rendering in a variety of typical ///M colors.

Color choice is going to be tough when it comes time to order.

.

Isn't that what pretty much ALL M cars are?

I like it... although, the front bar looks too.... catfishy to me...

Juke · 04-21-2010, 01:33 AM

OMG

Yvette · 04-21-2010, 01:36 AM

ChrisK · 04-21-2010, 07:37 AM

Here are a few color choices. These are quick, not perfect.
