i really like this concept. it doesn't look too plain as a matter of fact, it looks very aggressive. i think bmw is finally heading to the right step for sport and luxury.

For some odd reason the front profile from far away reminds me of a Dodge...I don't like that too much.

really? I when I saw them the first thing that popped into my mind was a girl wearing way to much eyeshadow.

Pretty cool! They could improve on the headlights abit and the grille is way too wide.

BMW design is too hit and miss. The 7 (iMo) was elegant and nicely proportioned from the start. Then came the 5, which just looks lacking. The 3 sedan and coupe are classic designs, then came the chunky hard top. The 1 is butt ugly, now comes this CS thing. BMW has lost its nice balance of grace and attitude.

bmw has only recently gained some balance of grace and attitude. There is no way all of the old square beamers had any grace, and the attitude they were sporting was somewhere along the lines of a pitbull.

There are some ugly ducklings out there now that you've mentioned it. The 1 series and the X3 in particular, 7 and 6 series is way too big and clumsy. This CS is great except for the front end. Its a concept, so lets see what happens.

Personally I think the CS is overrated. Many consider it to be the epitome of BMW's (especially Chris Bangle's) design abilities, but the front end of the car doesn't really go along with the rest of the body. From the side, you have the elegant flowing lines of a "four door coupe" and the rear end is decently pretty. And then all of a sudden in the front, you get an aggressive (not even), sort of ugly profile. Yes I agree that this car is a huge improvement in Bangle's part (his 7 series before the facelift was just plain ugly, as is the rear end of the 3 series sedan), and I hope that this car is a harbinger of better things to come from BMW.

I'll call this car the "shark face". This car is savage looking like the great white. Kool.

That's what I'm thinking. I'm still holding out hope that this is just a concept model of the new 7. Does this thing seat four or five?

This look so aggressive, i think my CLS just got moved to #2 as the sexiest 4 door coupe. Also i don't agree with most people on here that bad mouth the 7 series design and the 5 series. I love them to death, but that i guess is about opinion, each to his own.

Every BMW model is a different world. Besides, the mass production versions look more beautiful than the concepts. Hope this won't pass by CS either:-))))

Scale it, as much a possible, to a size midway between the 3 and 5 series. Then take out the bangle-isms that have evolved from awkward to insipid. Put in a I6 diesel and watch it sell. With a little less flaming on the surfaces and a change to the rear fender line, it would be really nice.

Yeah, its a cool concept, but it does have some issues. CDN gave it tops marks as concept of the year 2007. I have some problems with the front grille, I find it to be too wide and it gives the front end a pancaked look. I do like the rear end design much better however. The interior is gorgeous though. Overall, its a fairly striking concept, and a good foundation for the next 7 series and 5 series (could use a bit of downsizing however).
