I agree with a lot of the sentiment on this post. While these renders do look good (the convertible looks great BTW), a BMW shouldn't be just about it's looks. Now I know, nobody has driven the new 8-Series yet, but we all know how heavy the thing is, and driving dynamics have a lot to do with weight. From a design perspective, I only love certain things about the 8-Series because they are discontinuing design architecture that I never liked to begin with, such as the headlights joining the kidney grilles up front, but otherwise BMW isn't taking huge risks again like they did with the E60 and E63. You want to see some companies really throwing design caution out to the wind, look at Lexus and their LC500 or Aston Martin and their new Vantage. This new 8-Series is great, but I'm not compelled to buy one, or even an M8 because I know that it won't really be any lighter than an F90 M5. I now put this M850i in the category that I regard the BMW i8 in, it's a cool car, but I don't care to ever own one.

Everything. They have always pioneered technology that will eventually trickle down to the rest of the car makers, radar cruise control, Hydraulic suspension, night vision, etc they strive to make the best without compromise. Not saying that it always works, it certainly doesn't but if you question what I'm saying look at the Mercedes 600 Grosser (Mercedes Big) and you will see what I mean when I talk about no compromises. Everything was hydraulic. Seats, windows, trunk, suspension, everything. Did it work, yes, was it perfect, not even close.

Hoffenmeister kink at 8 GC is awful.. i dont like new Kink design that started woth X2, i prefer those on previous models, lets say x5 f15, it hade that soft curve and than sharp corner , new style at x2, and 8gc has two almost equaly sharp, it has lost it remerkable design, thats the thing that seprates side ciew from Audi and Merc, that was minor clue to see difference bewtnww bmw and rest of "cars".. now, it wont be that easy
