That's the GTS? Looks more like the autozone special with those wheels and wing.
I know it's functional but it still looks tacky.

Thanks OP.

Interesting. Sorta. OLEDs are pretty neat.

Wheels seem out of place.

I do, but the orange is what ruins it. An all-silver or machined-face would've been very understated.

wheels need to be more concave... They look like some cheap knock-off rim for $899.99 from the local tire shop...

Ricer wing? You must not visit the track often.

Yea but the GTS is "supposed" to be a more track oriented car a la Porsche GT cars. I really hope the M4 GTS isn't just a bunch of aero parts bolted on a normal M4.

It's got water/meth so there's going to be at least that much going for it.

everyone stop bitching about the wheels. they probably won't make it production as this still is a concept car. also the wing isn't my cup of tea, but no wing is. however did everyone seem to forget the previous gts? lol don't hear anyone complaining about that car...

Wheels didn't look bad on that car....

Kidding aside, I know the wing is functional. The matte black ZCP's look less stance nation, though.

True. They look like the $5000 Rotiforms I see on $5000 Golfs.

I hate the wind on the e92 GTS too. Why not make it more interesting like a Porsche GT3 rs or a gt4 wing? Or go back to the integrated spoilers on the older M cars, but bigger. Like the fast jaguar models or a GTR. Anything would look better than that.

Those tail lights look terrific.
