Yes! BMW Finally Gets It RIGHT!

Being an huge BMW enthusiast, I`m saddened by many of the new styling I see BMW incorporate into their final production vehicles. I don`t mean to be offensive to those who may own the lines, but besides the 3 series coupe I find every new BMW either appalling or very lack luster. That is, until this...

This is the BMW Concept CS - a four door luxury GT. I`m not a purist who demands that all sports cars confine to strict, coupe like standards. Hey if you want to put a W12 in the Bently GT, go for it! -but imagine what happens when BMW does something similar. The agile and invigorating ride of a BMW, and this time with GOOD LOOKS!

Looks to me like a cross between a 6 Series, a Bently GT and a Maserati Quatroporto

It`s nice..definetly a large vehicle though. The beauty of this car is the subtle aggressiveness. I love both the front and back ends.

Yup, the front incorporates the intakes we see on the new X5 (which I actually do sortra like looks wise) and the back has the 6 Series lip with a Bently GT esque exhaust. GORGEOUS !

Love the look from the sides but don`t like the front or rear. It`s like a late entry to the CLS party.

EDIT: Looking at it again there`s some rather large changes that have to be made before it comes to market. Bumpers?

I`m pretty sure those are the bumpers...my car, despite being far inferior, in similiar is design as far as the bumpers. They are very `integrated` so to speak.

Looking at the front profile, I see lots of exposed tire. Not a good thing.

Keep watching.

It`s really not bad until you get close enough to see the details. Some of the folds in the rear quarter panel might actually whistle at highway speeds, LOL.

This is a concept guys

Way to big, too many curves. Interior... is exquisite in some ways. All I know is I like the new performance out of the newer designs. Appearance wise it will take a generation or two to get right.
