    Im diggin' the interior but its just too hard to improve on perfection on the exterior. 
    Its kind of like the MY2000 Ford Thunderbird as a throwback to the '55. 

    This is not an official BMW thing, just a design concept by a man named David Obendorfer

      This reminds me of what all of the modern muscle cars are doing, new take on classic design.  This one is just like them because it is so bulky/chunky looking, most of which I assume has to do with crash/pedestrian safety crap. 

      It's too fat looking.

        I like some of the classic lines, but overall agree with @jc43089. Looks like a chubby 1 series mated with a new Camaro.

          It looks like that goofy Nissan concept from a few months ago. I am not a huge fan of the retro/modern combo because it just looks fat to me.

            I like it a lot from the window sills up. The rest sucks horribly. Like everyone else said, way too bulky.

                  The front end looks like a new Mitsubishi Lancer from the profile shot.  I hate it.

                    Front side profile reminds me of an Alpha Romeo, the rest of the car looks like a E93 vert with a different top. With some tweaking this could be cool.

                        To help my eyes feel better, I looked at this for a few hours a day. I figured maybe it will help a few of you too.
