BMW design language is definitely moving in the right direction again. If they build this they will have a definite winner in the 'coupe' class. Much nicer than the A7, CLS

Yes, but it is conformed now for production.
This is a new segment of models, CS concept AM Rapide, MB CLS..etc
You can say a bigger 2+2 coupe, with a lower roof which makes it look like a coupe.

Right now I'd buy a B7 Alpina over any other comparable sedan on the market (including the AMG S-Class and the QP). It's so sexy... This car is another rung on the ladder. Imagine an Alpina version!

No word on price yet.

Normally I like the Audi design language more, but this Bimmer is definitely way better looking than the A7. Maybe the A7 will look 10 x better in the flesh, but if not, this car is the winner.
