This is such a beautiful rendering, I hope it will be very close to reality! Nice nice, very nice!

yep no question about it. very beautiful indeed. its more resolved than the merc cls, without the "me too" approach in its design. i like it alot. not convinced by the grille though... but otherwise very slick.

What a joke. It bares absolutely no resemblance to the CS Concept and looks like a poor Lancia copy.

As I said, let's hope Adrian Van Hooydonk, BMW Designer, create the best lines for 8 Series.

Thing that makes me laugh is you've gone to the effort to get the Hoffmeister kink in but you've fallen short with the 'L' shaped lights at the back. In fact they're not even present. I really doubt BMW will make their grill so small on a so called halo car as well.

Love the design, threatening but still elegant. Great job on the rendering, but anyone notice there's no driver, yet the car is in motion.

Although BMW rose from its dark ages of design by this elegant 8-series,but,theres a great resemblance to merc cls specially from the side.

If they made an 8 series it would be something between the 7 series and the Maybach not between the 5 and 7 series. That spot is reserved for the CS. to me this looks like an extended 3 series.

That's such an ugly rendering. The body lines are nearly identical to those of the 3 series. The grille looks weird and the side profile is too fat. The CS concept was much better. Enough with these porrly done renderings.

I thought this rendering is a joke...the back is like the ugliest part of the car...the grille at the front is just small enough why don't they just not make one at all...

WCF photoshops never look anything like the prototype nor the real thing so I wouldn't count on it.

8series shud run against the mercedes cl not cls.... the cs should be in between the 7-8 not the 5-7

Actually, I have it on very good word that this thing is the CS Concept we saw in China. It will be quite different in looks of course, but that is essentially the 4-door coupe that BMW is building.
