The hood bulges are most likely cosmetical.

^^I dont' think they are cosmetic.

Explanations

Side-mirrors
Exclusive exterior mirrors developed for the BMW M3 Concept Car feature the characteristic black double foot that reminds the viewer of the wings of an aircraft. Even this small detail is in keeping with the principle of “form follows function”. With their horizontal contour line and tapered shape toward the outside, the exterior mirrors not only contribute to the overall impression of the vehicle, but their aerodynamic shape, optimised in a wind tunnel, is advantageous to air resistance values.


Powerdome on the hood
Faithful to the principle of “form follows function” in designing the body for the concept study, designers at BMW M GmbH used elements that not only visually emphasise the increased sportiness of the vehicle, but also serve a technical purpose. Conspicuous at the front are three large air intakes below the cooling grille that supply the engine with additional intake and cooling air. Strong, vertical struts delineate the air intakes and enhance their characteristic form.

The aluminium engine compartment lid exhibits a wide bulging curvature known as the Powerdome. Like the air intakes beside it, the Powerdome suggests the great potential that can be expected of a powerplant in the engine bay of a BMW M3. The M3 Concept Car features a high revving V8 engine that is anticipated for the series car once it goes into production.

The contours of the Powerdome and air intakes are in line with the forward-pointing sweep of the engine compartment lid and harmoniously blend into the overall design of the front, which is longer than that of the BMW 3 Series Coupé. Together with the double kidney grille typical of BMW and the flat headlamp units, they lend the BMW M3 Concept Car a highly dynamic character.

Hello,

Hope you are enjoying today's events . Currently in Geneva will be online later.

we want answers 440hp or 426hp, CSL version or not?

...or 450 hp

Any info Scott? Please tell!

Scottie, BMW badly needs a (new) director for their "shows".

Completely amateurish "show" today.

Totally disappointed.

+1 on that. For all the emphasis on "dynamics" the presentation was so un-dynamic. They needed to ramp up the excitement quite a few notches as they exuded almost none. The people and the event do not do justice in any way to the car.
