Ooooh, Nazca C2 - luvverly. So is it true that the C2 had a B12 5.7 engine?

Erm, well, all mid-engined supercars bear a certain similarity to each other, but it's probably fair to say that the C2 bore the same genetic strand, passed down from the Turbo, the M1, E31 and that E34-based showcar with the needle nose. IIRC, the C2 dates from the mid-1990s, no?

The one & only M8 S70 engine is a 48 valve V12, featuring 550 horse power in the M8 prototype. The car was designed to be a Ferrari killer.However, it was never produced due to low market demand

Er, that's nice (I always mourn wistfully at those pics of the M8), but what's the relevance here?

I'm pretty sure he doesn't have an Austin Maestro either. What's your point, buddy?

Everytime I see Nazca I remember M8 as well. I don't understand why BMW is not making one lightweight sports car. Not that it matters but obviously Sultan would buy 5 immediately.
