BMW 6-series concept

[2o6]

A bit boring, and lacks as much presence as the old model or the MB CL, but certainly prettier than the model that is currently on sale.



However, I would take the current 6er over this.





Gorgeous rear.






I still think the Concept CS was a head-over-heels better design than this or the 8-series. It was far more adventurous and yet and still was quite beautiful.

I think the rear would work better if the taillights didn't come up above that crease on the trunk. Not really crazy about it. Hopefully it'll be smaller + lighter than the last one (though prob not). Not a fan of the turbo motors either. Blah.

That looks great. I'd have it over a CL.

Boring. Especially the front. The rear is muscular and sporty in appearance, side profile isn't bad but the front just looks outright 'wimpish'. Guess I have to see it in real life before I really say more about the design.

The cabin looks great though.

Love it.  I like the old model too (still high on my list), but I definitely like this.

Something about the front isn't sitting well with me, but the rear is a big improvement.

I'm having trouble liking the front, but overall the car looks great

[Speed_Racer]

I think it looks pretty sharp. It reminds me of the classic 8-series, though (which isn't a bad thing).

[Gotta-Qik-C7]

NICE!

[Tave]

I think it looks really good. I'm enamored with BMW's new front end styling too.

Very nice, how much.

Hate the concept car interior, love the rest of the car.

[Mustangfan2003]

I like the interior except for the giant screen on the dash, might as well put my 32 inch LG in there.

With the exception of the gas pedal, it looks like something Toyota would design for a pickup truck or minivan.

Styling language on the interior looks pretty similar to other BMW's.

[Mustangfan2003]

I do like the suede headliner, that's pretty pimp.

All in all it is a good looking car, but for some reason it leaves me cold.

Yeah it's hard to find the heater setting with the idrive. 

[SJ_GTI]

I am digging it.

Does the lack of a mechanical hand brake mean no stick option?

A lot of European cars are losing traditional handbrakes.


The current Legacy uses an electronic handbrake, and you can still get a 6-speed.

FWIW, my S4 has an electric e-brake, but is a 6-speed manual.

[giant_mtb]

A4 has an elec handbrake. I think the new Regal does, too, though I dunno if that thing is available with a stick...?

[Mustangfan2003]

Can you dig it?

2.4L, no. 2.0T, yes.

[Colonel Cadillac]

Ugh, I hate the electronic E-brake.

[Submariner]

Ugh, I hate the electronic E-brake.

If the car is auto only, it's fine with me, but for some illogical reason, I really dig a mechanical one in cars with manuals.

It looks unfinished. I need to see it in a color w/some hue and different wheels.

It doesn't look like a BMW though.
