Too bad it’s no longer a BMW engine.

Centre driving position is ditched in favour of a more “contemporary” design?

That’s a damn shame. Lose whatever differentiator there was.

On a side note, what is so contemporary about side-by-side seating? That configuration has been around since the dawn of time. I would say “more common”, or “boring” if you will :)

In the eyes of the law, its still a “kit car”

Can ONLY be considered a genuine blue-blood when it has its own engine.

Not that hard really, TVR did its own donk…..

I sure hope that’s not official, that’s the blandest car I’ve ever seen

An M-F1 is a hard to beat gob smacker but it does look yummy even as said, a bit F430-ish.
Is it a another Gordon Murray?

IS-F wheels anyone? =P

But if this is anything like the original, this could be interestingly good.

the front? well, an F430 had an orgy with a Mazda 6, a Carrera GT, and then a Lotus jumped in right at the end to give influence to the posterior. I call it, the F6GT-Exige!

Exhaust pipes near rear lights like Pagani looks like a Ferrari F430 it copies other super cars.

Looks like McLaren also stole copies off Ferrari.
Looks similar at the front of a F430. and the side looks like a Audi R8 but the back look like McLaren designed itself so hats off to that.
