Lol, looks like a rhino from the front, the big nostrils (kidney grills) and wing mirrors that look like rhino ears, however it does look good, with the exception of those front headlights.

Men, as human being we suck!! when people saw the new BMW interior they were like it sucks!! because blah blah not driver centric, now with the new interior it look like they were listening to people's complaints about not being driver centric, guess what?? still not happy now it looks Japanese!! This is why human beings are never happy!!

Well I think it look awesome and men those rims!! sick, love the interior but that front of the car needs to be seriously reviewed, maybe even taken back to the drawing board.

I love BMW's simplicity, but very efficient interior...
have you taken a look at the interior of the old Z8? it looks just like that, except now it's driver centric!! nothing Japanese about it, if it was Japanese it would have a myraid of buttons to push!!

I love it, since its a concept you cant look at it as a car itself but more of a bunch of new styling cues that will shape all future BMW cars, and i think its a great move.

The more stout nose with larger kidney grills is an A++ styling move. Makes the car meaner, and have more prescence as well as remind you of the car's heritage

Nothing really new in the profile shape, classic interpretation of the modern BMW

The "flame surfacing" or whatever you call it seems to really be refined on the side of the car, its a move that was started with the Z4 and now really seems to be better interpreted

The rear is an unbelievable interpretation of the classic L shaped BMW taillights but mixed in with a much more modern design, its completly cutting edge, makes me drool!

The interior is nice, but you can definitly see the benz inspiration here, I guess hiring the former head of MB interior design has some effect here

This will and should be the 8 series, everyone has been asking for its famous return, the 8 series was a legend in its time, and i think its time they brought it back, this CLS.Panamera.Rapide killer, should be tough to beat, im sure an M model will be available as well, lets remember that this is a concept, and not a production model, i am very sure they will tweak alot of stuff out, I am 100% certain this will not be the interior of the car, because i read somewhere that BMW will continue to develop the i-Drive and make it faster and better, i think the next step is for the i-drive to hold about 60GB of songs in the memory of it, so we dont have to deal with cDS, as much...Also, i think the V-12 will probably be reserved for the M-model, and not for the lower end models, im sure this will release as a V8, with a turbo charger, just as the next 7 series is being developed with a supercharged V8..the next 7series will have enough horsepower, and lightweight components to go up againts any AMG or S8 models.. AMAZING looking car,still needs a few tweaks before i decide on wether to buy it or not, my M6 is a tough car to beat lol :-D

WOW i am really loving this new design, like others have said the kidney grills are strange but the more i look at them the more i like them. Very aggressive front imo. Great design by BMW design team!

deff not i still strongly believe its the new 8 and remember its a "four door coupe" which still makes it a coupe and not all even numbers are coupes the only thing that would denote that is the 6 other than that when the car does go into production it should be introduced with a v8-12 and 7 spd transmission
