what you mean not my typical self? Im teh confused.

I really do find the 6-series to be really sexy. I know it will do well...

As for the hating comment, just seems like most people hate a new design when it first comes out and then falls in love with it once they see it more and more.

In the outside mirror you can clearly see a 3 series car. Funny.

Not really anything special. I am not a fan of the new BMW interiors, I liked it when they were directed toward the driver.

Very bland and although you can't really make out the back, from other pics, it has that terrible rear design.

I also don't like the new BMW interiors. They look like they are pointing away from the driver

What do you mean? The 850 had sharp lines and was sleek and aggressive...this is rounded and pudgy looking with only a mild hint of aggressiveness. IMO, the 850 is one of the all time best looking coupes. This new 6 series is bland in comparison. The side profile reminds me of a cross between a Pontiac Grand Am coupe and the new Tiburon then f***ed over by Bangle. IMHO

About the only thing they have in common is they both have two doors...

I do agree that the 850 was one of the best looking coupes ever... but I am still looking forward to this one, it will grow on me I'm sure.

Everything looks good cept the front end (specially the headlights and the "new" kidney grill) and the rims.

Interior isnt horrid but could be much better. I guess I'd buy one but its still no 850Csi

Ugly to me, G35 coupe is killing it exterior wise. I have NO IDEA why BMWs are drivers cars but they are making the interiors no longer driver oriented.

The car looks okay. Nowhere close to the current 3 series coupes or even the 840/850 coupes. Those cars look low and mean. This one looks strange, with big air between the tire and fenders and a discontinuous step stool trunk lid and headlights that give the car a sleepy look. Not the look that breeds a sporty tone. I still think they should fire bangle.
