Edit: big thanks to HumanPerson and their friend for potentially figuring it out! It seems to be a BMW F10!

Hey there! I'm not trying to find a perp committing a hit and run or anything, just curious on what make and model this car could be!

I was following it on the interstate and couldn't ID it then, and can't ID it from my dashcam either. And was never close enough to get a clear view until he hauled ass and disappeared. I thought it was a Kia sports car at the time (k5 or stinger) but can't place the tail lights

It doesn't seem to be a kia, Subaru, Ford focus (hatchback), or Corvette to me. But I'm also not entirely sure of the exhaust placement or door count!

Here's the clip I got the screenshots from: https://streamable.com/9hu10f

Thanks in advance!

Idk if the video will help tbh lol. If we remove the expectation of a center exhaust, and I squint really hard, I could maybe see a 2019 BMW M340i - those have reflectors, taillight and license plate in similar positions.

Unfortunately You probably won't have a conclusive answer from these pictures heh.

Edit: there are also trailer hitch receivers available for the M340i for bike racks. That may explain the single pipe in the middle??

Most likely not, but it was definitely worth a try lmao. I didn't even consider that it could've been a bmw!

Here's that clip from my dashcam: https://streamable.com/9hu10f

Hope it helps!
