Not that different from the current model to make any difference for me, especially with the soft top which looks good on the e85 but hideous on the e89
Disappointed that they haven't gone for a hybrid engine along the lines of the i8.
Very poor if that's the best BMW designers can come up with. :thumbsdown:
But on a positive note it makes the current model more desirable IMHO (Especially Orange 35is models) :oops:

The bastard offspring of inbreeding between an MX-5 and a Fiat 124 Spider. :thumbsdown:

Start saving for a Boxster S. There is no other option! :rofl:

Not doing a lot for me. It's so dissapointing that all the German brands have created this brand style that dilutes any difference aross their range. Almost every car looks identical from the front, it's really boring and shows a lack of flair. :thumbsdown:

Back looks good. They can keep the rest. Doesn’t look like I’ll be upgrading if that’s a true likeness.

I’ll reserve judgment until it’s unveiled.

F Type does absolutely nothing for me.

Would prefer a German car rather than an Indian one anyway! :rofl:

Some one has wasted a good 2minutes putting that rendition together. Best wait and see what it actually looks like. Please not that bland.
