Dang, I'd look cool in that!

wow thats nice

Not too sure about the color; to me, an orange BMW doesn't look right without Jägermeister logos. Otherwise, not bad at all.

I'm that can easily be fixed...

I wonder if it has the iDrive-delete option...

The new iDrive is actually pretty easy to use and has several really cool features. Much better than last year's model.

all BMW's should offer i-Drive delete....

Cool.

The only problem I have is the tagline "Innovation". What's innovative about bumping up displacement, upgrading the brakes, putting in a rollbar, and pulling out some extraneous weight?

In reply to ReverendDexter:

+1

But it's about dang time on trimming the fat (3278 lbs)

Seems pretty resonable these days.

I wonder if we'll get a tamed down version here. No chance of the roll bar or race seats making it, just as with a 911 GT3, but there must be a market for an American Version

I don't see any inovation.

innovations... schminnovations...

I just see a really cool car.
