Was in the area this morning and decided to see if the new 8GC was at my dealer and they had one out front.
Overall it looks much better in person than online and the proportions are very nice. It still won't beat the 6GC in looks and I still wish it had a sharper kink in the rear window, but its a very attractive car nonetheless especially in the spec below with the BSM exterior and nice silver rims over the ugly cerium gray ones. Here's some pics below, not the best due to how it was parked and the car was dirty, but still good looking.

for the guys who has checked out 8 GC, how is the rear room compare to 5 series (ignore the center seat of course, and understand roof line is probably lower...)

Couldn't sit in it since the dealers closed on Sunday, but specs for the 5er and 8GC for rear legroom seem to be pretty similar (within less than 1 inch of each other) so I would think its less comfortable than the 5er due to lack of headroom as well as getting in and out might be more difficult without really providing any more legroom.
