The front looks hideous because of the grille. I think that the LS looks way better. Looks like the bangle butt is gone for good and for once I think that BMW copied Lexus, look at the dark wood, I've never seen it in a BMW or Mercedes and the gear lever is brought back to the center, just like the LS. And the square exhaust pipes...but I like the LED turn signals on the rear lamps, I wish that I can see that in a Lexus one day, it just makes the car look more "futuristic".

If they do it's because Hyundai borrowed. Not the other way around.
I think the front end works. What doesn't is the generic economy car rear end. I may actually prefer the Bangle butt to this since the Bangle butt had its own character.
I may never warm up to BMW's interiors. They may be ergonomic masterpieces but I just wouldn't want to live in them.
The CS concept was just so much more striking. I wish it had more of its influence.

Beautiful machine. Tires & wheels fill up the fenders as it should on a sport luxury sedan. I see it will include the new I-drive interface as well Access to CL & bimmerpost from behind the wheel...

Taillights throw me off (it's a bit unbalanced -- assymmetrically curvy in opposition to a generally muscular bulky body). Also, front end looks 5-Series-ish.
Otherwise, I like the simplicity and refinement, albeit outdated.
