First live photos of BMW Gran Coupe Concept!

[palpatine_us]

Its got an 18-20 inch rear quarter window- thats a really long coupe.

Compare that photo to a photo of the coupe, its definitely stretched.

Its the 4-door, look again.

I believe the Jaguar XF is being copied by BMW (not a bad thing). I love the looks of fastback cars coupes and 4 doors.

I see it gets LED headlamps. Unlike the new X5. Thanks for sh!t BMW.

Dude, if that's a 4 door, then looking at the B pillar, the rear door is 4 inches long.

There's only like 6" of distance from the rear of the front door (as is located by the base of the B pillar) to the leading edge of the rear tire.

It's merely the closed version of the 6. The other is the convertible.

what is it with them calling coupes that are not coupes, coupes?

PM3, not that I think your argument that first to market products will sell better is of significant worry to BMW.. but consider that even after the CS was officially canned, the project (which was already underway), carried on..

This I remember from 18 months ago

THAT'S a GRAN SEDAN!!!
Come on back with a 2 door version and then you can call it a GRAN COUPE.

It's the general disintigration of automotive definitions, becasue apparently definitions are subjective, open to interpretation, and simply reflections of opinion. They already bastardized roadster. Next up wil be the M3 pickup truck that won't actually be a pickup truck.
