This thing makes me want to puke and cry at the same time.

The wheels have got to go.

Someone thought they could buy Class and bought those rims...





Look, buddy. You're born with Class. You don't buy it!

that thing is hideous. I like some changes to the original 6-series, but overall looks like something someone threw up.

the sparkly foam material is just a filling for whatever trim that they will put there. Notice the BMW emblem is missing from the steering wheel, and they put that sparkly stuff there as well. It's still a beta car, I'm sure once final production starts, it will look a lot better than the pics.

its interesting ...

do you guys ever wonder if there are a team of designers hanging out @ BMW making bets on how rediculous they can make the cars before people stop buying them?

G1: "Hey Joe, they bought my 1series design. Can you top that?"
G2: "I sure can. Check this out, it's an 'X6' and it's pretty much useless."
G3: "OK you two, look what I just did to the 6series, you think I can get away with this one too?"

on a lighter note the headlights are an improvement from the regular 6, which looks like it has downs

Front still looks like a fat person sat on it and smooshed the front end
