• There are hardcore aerodynamics with dive planes on the front bumper and a huge rear wing, and the cabin is stripped down to the bare necessities.

There’s Gordon Murray’s V-12-powered T.50 fan car, Hennessey’s new V-8-powered Blackbird, the radical Nilu27 from the designer of the Bugatti Chiron, and the Porsche-esque Oilstainlab HF-11, to name a few.

The 1990s were a golden era for BMW. They kicked off with the '80s' E30-generation M3 (one of our readership's favorite BMWs) race car continuing to kick butt in German DTM racing, and the E36 M3 proving to be an excellent follow-up.

Now, the face-tatted enfant terrible is opting out of grand concepts in favor of adrenaline-pumping hedonism, completing his rock & roll metamorphosis and leading fans on a wild night of partying with a dazzling crew of local and international friends in tow.
