The BMW insider Scott26 says it's the next 6 series, so why do people still think it could be an 8 series or even a 7 series coupe?

It seems Scott26 has made a HUGE mistake by calling it 6-series. All known resources (motor1, autocar, autobild,autoexpress) call it 8 series, no one use 6 series name. is Scott26 reliable resource?

Well, if it is the new 6er, at least it looks a hell of a lot better than the current mess. Still going to be a giant boat though.

Calling the F13 a 'mess' is rich, especially coming from a 1 series owner. Thank goodness for the 2 series for sorting out that mess.

I know well who is SCOTT26 here, some time ago read some of his posts . But I tell you no one auto news site called these spy photos as a prototype of future 6 series. All as one for 8 series. I think it might be of importance.

I actually ordered the 1er when I saw what the 2 was going to look like. Preferred the look of the 1. |

Most people would agree the current 6 series is the one of the best looking of the bunch, and conversely the 1 series is generally the ugly duckling hand down.

whatever it is, it looks extremely sleek, i can see some i8 supercar influence in this. The roofline is somewhat Aston Martin-esque, which i like a lot. Looking forward to seeing this revealed. this is definitely how BMW should design their rooflines IMHO.

He and other BMW insiders have provided information hat have helped me make my render of the next G30 5 series (http://g30.bimmerpost.com/forums/sho....php?t=1251326) to be as close as possible to the real car, which is to be revealed very soon. You'll be able how close I was and how Scott26's information is accurate. Cheers.

8 Series
If anything, the future 8 series will be closer to the Pininfarina Gran Lusso Coupe concept from 2013. If you look closely you'll see quite a few design elements that have appeared in the most recent BMW releases (hood line, air breather, lower valance)...

SCOTT26 said there will be a 6 series (continuation of the current 6 series) and 8 series (Coupe version of the 7 series). That's what I think is important... See my previous post...

Never cared much for this concept. Looks like a whale and the interior was bland (like that of the F01). BMW better come out swinging b/c that new S coupe looks like a million bucks inside and out, especially the convertible.

One more news regarding 8 series and these spy photos
http://www.autoexpress.co.uk/bmw/957...clusive-images It should be 8 series, not likely it's 6 series |

Congrats. Don't know why you mentioned that because no one mentioned money. But hey, once again congrats. Fact remains 1er still isn't easy on the eyes.
