If BMW has learned anything as of late, its that it needs to reintroduce some of that passion and theatre.
The most efficient MPG and all the carbon fibre in the world doesn't mean jack if the cars lack soul and are artificial in feel/sound, particularly in this segment of 2-seater coupes and roadsters.

Wow, each his own, but the sound of the F was just horrible, both the V6 and the bigger brother.
Give me a I6 sound like the M2 or a V10 any day.
I guess the former is more realistic, but one can hope
Anyway, these pictures look great, looks low and wide, love the fact that it has a Soft top, it's the right choice
