Fake as they come. the two red reflectors give it away, if the fact there's a hood bulge on a mid engine car. The rear intake is from the Audi R8 and the rest is an amalgamation of a stretched M3 and the Ford GT in the original photo.
I am 99 percent sure this is a fake. First of all in my opinion as a BMW fanatic the designers there have way too much skill to put out something as unoriginal as this.
to begin with the head lights are taken of a mitsubishi EVO X and just had the bmw double circles placed inside that shape. the side and front are mostly M3, but the rear, top, and area where the hood meets the A-pillar are M6 and the rest is just streched and tweeked photoshopping.
Photochop! The rear intakes are chrome while the rest of the roof/ A-pillar structure is white. Another dead give away is the front clip/ front quarter panels. According to this picture the entire surround (both front quarters + bumper) is one piece. Also, the hood does not properly match up with the front clip (look at the corner closest to the grill) Overall, well done but obviously not an actual car or official BMW rendering.

why would they put a hood bulge on a midengined car?

I'm hoping that it is real ! I can't wait to see the rear end and the inside...

9k is completely right!
+ it's very plain to see that the R8 intake is fake
