Woah, that predicted M2 looks surprisingly un-awful ;) although I'm sure Bangle will make absolutely sure that the head/taillights are ruined by the time it hits preoduction...

right it will show up as a concept at first just like the SLR did in 1999 (taking 5 years to production) and if i heard correctly the SLR will be built for 5 to 7 years. ending around 2010ish is when we will possibly see this thing go into production, and maybe late 2005 for the concept to debut.

So McLaren will be building a successor to the F1? Hmmm...this will be very interesting indeed. The sooner the better. I wish I could look into the future to see what it looks like and how it performs. :)

Oh, I miss-read Matra's post. It won't be another supercar?! That sucks. I'd take an Enzo then.

That's the first image I've seen of the 1 Series Saloon, didn't even realise they were making one. I reckon it looks a lot better than the hatch though.
The M2 looks great in my opinion. Just sits on the right side of the "looks original/looks awful" line, unlike the 7 series... :rolleyes: But thats getting a facelift, so it's all good.

Is that a real ad of the 1-Series sedan? The wheeks don't look right, and there's a couple of other things too...
Either way, I like the looks of it...

Sigh... I'm far too naïve. It would explain why there's been no news about it i guess!
Now you mention it, it's pretty damn obvious its a chop. :(
Ahh well, I still reckon it looks better than the hatchback! :)
That BMW M2 in the first picture looks like a 1 series which is hideous and that BMW M2 Coupe picture looks to dainty and toy like to be good looking. Oh yeah, and Bangle...YOU SUCK!

Yes, you insult that man who has made an awful lot of money successfully designing cars.
All those cars you designed are so much better aren't they.
:rolleyes:
Don't be so perfect. I bet you have once insulted someone just because they do something you don't like even though they could do it much better than you.
And, If I have insulted you by saying that, at least have the decency to tell me that it insulted you and I would apologise instead of coming up with a sarcy comment like that.

Sharp looking cars, especially that new 1 series. Hmmmm if McLaren isn't going to do a supercar, what will it be? Maybe just a nice sportscar to compete with the successor to the 360?
