Most photos do not do these undulations justice, as the peaks and valleys on the hood are very impressive and give a hint at the car’s sporting intentions. Like all recently introduced BMWs the front twin kidneys have grown to allow the choice of engines to be cooled effectively and to offset the look of the new pedestrian safety requirements as per the EU.

Throughout the exterior there are little nuances, such as little spoilers on the rear lights that are not only there for design language but for aerodynamics. BMW worked this car over thoroughly in the wind tunnel to make it as slippery as possible.

The interior of this new model follows the lead from the 7 Series and 5 GT and it is just stunning.

If looks and build quality are any indication of how this car will drive, BMW has a hit.
