It looks like they took the worst of the late-70's/early-80's Ferarri's and Lambourghini's and mixed the parts together with a gigantic amount of suck. Christ, the white one looks like a Fiero knock-off from that angle.

The only angle I like to look at if from is the side profile shot. Outside of that, it looks like they took the front end off a new Mustang or Camaro, and changed the angles and headlight patterns. Everything other angle looks awful.

You guysssss, the white one is the original M1, and yes its body was indeed designed by Lamborghini (or some italian dude, I forget)
A bit OT but the engine used in the first M1 was also used in this beauty:

It looks like the car a Bond villain would drive.

That is quite possibly the ugliest car I've ever seen. It's looks as if a very large man accidentally sat on the new Camaro.
