The phrase you were looking for was "hawtest concept car ever." ;-)
Seriously. This thing is drop-dead.
And the M1 itself was a vastly underrated machine. It was an exceptionally balanced and civilized (for a supercar) all-rounder born into an age where aesthetic excess and HP specs (personified by the Countach) determined desirability. That, and it was overpriced and had plastic body panels (apparently a BMW no-no). Still, if it had debuted in the mid-70s as originally intended, classic enthuasiasts would still be worshipping at its altar.
