I actually think that it looks great. Way better than the current big grill car line up that BMW has.

As owner of both F13 M6 and F92 M8 I would say both are gorgeous.
Not sure why you say 8 is huge since its a little shorter than 6.
6 looks like a pretty girl while 8 looks like a naughty/sexy one 😂

The smallest lights i've ever seen.

Why does BMW keep making the lights smaller and smaller?
But I love it

I like it. A non-hideous BMW concept is such a refreshing thing.

Looks like it could be mid engine almost though. Some M1 lines in there.

Because they’ll make 50 of them and kill off the concept.

Oh man I felt like the wheels were the worst thing about this (to be clear I love it overall) and you really proved that. SO much better with wheels that don't feel like some shitty fever dream out of the 80s.

I tell the truth about BMW designs and this one is beautiful and revolutionary with its shape.
But just to remind the design team, the current 5 series is painful to look at.

It is definitely better than their current recent offerings, but to me has a bit of a 6 series looking dated design. Maybe it'll look better in person.

Good point - should have read more of the article! ADHD in full swing!
IF it turns into a production car and it’s less than $200k I’ll consider it (wife actually loves it more than I do)!

It's okay. But BMW would be much better served focusing on either a new Top Tier model, 9 Series or a all new 8 Series.

Looks like they were going for "updated 8-series" blended with some 911 Targa. I kinda like it. Then again, if I were giving up minimally-useful back seats, I'm not sure whether a G14 or a G83 is the better base platform....
