BMW Concept CS – Shanghai Surprise ? 8Series ?
BMW is presenting to everybody surprise a new big 4-door Hi-end-Coupé at the Shanghai Motorshow
http://www.classicdriver.com/de/maga...00.asp?id=3899
looks a little Aston Martin like 
the front is very DBS-like ( besides the grill obviously) 
me likes
text in german, sorry
but you can get most of the info anyway
quite long and only 1.36m height which gives a stortier look, some 600hp engine to be mounted ...

It is simply a concept car. Just a chance to throw a few ideas here and there.
It sure has some cool details. And those rims... man they are crazy!
p.s. About the downfall thing - that's just your opinion, nothing else!

I told ya BMW wants to compete with the 4-door "coupe" CLS... Hopefully this doesn't become the new 8-series.

Now, that I've looked to the pics properly, I have to say it looks quite cool. The front is a bit ugly, but the rest is looks good.
But I don't understand what the hell has the 8 series to do with this. Will the future 8 series be a 4-door :roll:

Oh wow, that is just about as ugly as a handicapped duck with genital warts and a meth addiction.

I think they're headed in the right direction.
I know they're not going to build it and whatever they do build will be watered down and safe to hit people with so my reactions aren't that passionate to this model.

Like someone said before, Rapide ripoff!
I can only hope that if this car comes they will make a 850CSI again!

The front facia looks like shit. The rest is actually kinda sexy.
Dont get excited about the interior. Its only a concept and BMW is notorious for having extremely boring interiors!
