That looks f88king awful

looks too much like an e28 imho - would be a nice kit for that!

its been on here before a while back, if it was a brand new car the concept/shape i quite like, IF they changed the front/lights a bit to look more e30 like, and would be something different in the new shape car world

but their idea is a joke and the ultimate in bruvved up innit

the concept30 was designed from the outset with a limited production series in mind. It consists of 12 pieces that replace or attach to any E30 coupe, which the company says, ”ais the easiest way of having a modern looking classic”a.

imagine bolting that lot on to a rusty e30

Bunch of retards

even the fact that their e30 starting point there, looks like exagerated 17" bk pina reps , says it all

wonder how much they charge for creation of bruvvvvving up your bruved up mobile

Yeah if that was a radical new car design it could be marketed as " the new e28 " and it looks funky. Adding that to an e30 however is proper innit bruv yeh getz meh?

Kit = loserville! However, if this were a new design, I quite like it too (apart from the boot spoiler, thingy..)

It's a total feckin abortion, complete mash up of lines. They can mess around with the bolt on panels as much as they want but there is no getting around the square, dated lines of the roof, regardless of any amount of PS cheating by adding curved highlights and shadows to it *rolls eyes* Love to see a non-shopped photo of the turd. Agree that it looks like an E28.

Hideous! in a single word

Looks like something Will.I.Am would design. Complete bucket of arse IMO

Stevie could well be their launch customer...

reminds me of this front end

Really like some of their design ideas. BMW should take note of how they've handled retaining the kidney grille, as plenty of modern BMWs have dogshit kidneys.

I also like some of the nods to earlier models, like the nose angle and the bonnet over the wing. Not a fan of the bonnet 'lip' on the front. Rear lights are really creative and the rear spoiler is a nice touch when so many cars are shit from the back. In fact the rear kind of reminds me of the previous 5 series, which is a great looking car. Subtle nod to 5 series wing mirrors too. Cool.

This isn't trying to be an e30, it's a kit based on the car which completely changes it's appearance. Wouldn't put it in the same box as a bruvved up e30 with bumpArz and rimZ. I'd look at it as a modern looking small car with e30 handling characteristics.

What I'd be interested in, is what people who do with the 'go' to keep up with the show? (assume a rust free shell!)

Nice angle

I guess if BMW rocked up with something similar, saying it's the new 1 series coupe, which pays homage to the e30, I think people would be more accepting here.

look at it as 'just' a kit, and it dont look bad at all.

Whatever happened to that guy?

Has he been recruited by BMW to design the new M4?

More likely the new nissan cube or AMC pacer, anything asymetric
