It's hard to tell from the photos, but it looks like it has knockoff hubs (sometimes called spinners). It's definitely a prototype/showcar, but I doubt the wheels/rims would make it into production w/o lugnuts.

potential CL600 competitor? i don't know how big it really is, but from the pics it looks like they can fit a 12cyl. under that hood...but would BMW ever make a 12cyl.?

p.s. it kinda looks like a S2k, z4, 740i, TT, CL5-600, and a little bit of lamborghini all in one...

man, I loved the style of the old 8 series, that just doesn't carry the same prestige as some of their older cars.

Looks like a streched out z4, which works in this case. I'd buy one.
