Well, I'll be damned.

The Gran Coupe concept was, in fact, the F12 BMW 6-series, as you all had predicted.




Not only that, it is clearly and presently gorgeous--unlike the E63, which had to grow on you, before becoming long in the tooth and going downhill again.

Looks good

it looks like its smiling at you. better than the old one, but fuck ill never be able to look at it without thinking that

what an ugly piece of shit. i have to wash out my eyes now.


and i fucking mean it, too... bah.

All BMWs look the same again. D'oh.

that's not so bad I think. it looks more like a larger 3-series i guess. it beats looking like a Monaro that's retaining water.

From the A-pillar back, it looks rather sleek and sexy. That front end though looks like something that the late 90's Pontiac would come up with. It looks like a Grand Am.

agreed a pillar back, great, front EWWWW

In fact, I'll go so far as to say everything behind the headlights looks great. Oh well, at least BMW refreshes their front fascias all the time.

You guys are all a bunch of jerks. It looks great.

Not you Jett, you have a modicum of aesthetic sense. But the rest of you:

I still like it a lot, I just think some of the details at the front are a tad overwrought.

Also, this is a concept. A production concept fo sho, but hopefully the actual car will be a touch less busy. Also, wheels that are less crazy.

arent you the guy that liked the first 6 series???

its fine from the front wheels back, although the taillights are a bit odd. its the front that looks ridiculous

i'd take the outgoing 6 over this ugly thing.

i'd even take a first bangle 7 series rather than having to be seen in this ugly shitheap.

i really don't see what you guys like on it. the side windows are ok, and the rearview mirrors look good, too. apart from that, i'll pass.

also, glass roof? queers...

Fools. ALL OF YOU

Seriously:

For some reason the back of the 3 Series isn't showing up in my linked picture. But it's in the original:

Identical I say.

The front end isn't great, but it is 100x better than last one.

But I think that's the idea.
