How do you expect to get buyers away from Bentley, Aston Martin, AMG GT and the Ferrari Portofino? In this segment looks matter as much substance.
In the highest class this should be indeed a super sports car, instead of a conventional, heavy GT.
I also find that, as with the Z4, much was messed up between concept and series design. It looks like an overgrown M4 without having its sexiness.
I doubt this one will become an icon. There is just nothing special to see.
