    2006(?) Bmw M1

    I kept wondering what the concept sketch in my signature was all these months. Turns out it's a revamp of the classic M1:

    Here's the short article from <a href="http://www.motortrend.com/future/spied/112_0301_m1/">Motor Trend</a>.

    It's not as impressive as I thought, since a new M5 with a 500hp 5.5l V-10 is slated or 2006. Now, that's power.

    Around the turns, too. Believe me, the M1 will be a work of art and a wonderful machine - doubt it if you like. Besides, the possibility of forced air on it could mean tremendous, ass-kicking horsepower gains if the need be. In such a lightweight car, the all-around performance will be astounding.

    Oh yeah, The M1 is going to be so badass. I've got 3 years to come up with 100k? No problem.
