The pic in that signature has to be from a Blackberry's camera. BB camera shots always have that kind of fuzzy look.

Overall I do like the shape and I hope that BMW kept the styling conservative

I think it will look seriously hot when the camo comes off! I love that curve you see in the side view, where the roof slopes down to the trunk ending with a slight kink at the trailing edge of the trunk... I like it - just wish I could take her clothes off

Don't like that particular car, but it does look like a mini F1 (7er) to me and that looks great IMHO, naturally with the "right" wheels / colour etc

Thanks for sharing the pic -- getting warmer!

I don't know. Kind of reminds me of a Volvo. Not feeling it.
