I'm seriously in love with this car. Can't wait to pick one up. Or special order a frozen black/opal white interior M version again

Rear is a little too bulky but not bad overall.

Really like the front and the side profile. The rear looks a bit too busy as someone pointed out. Wonder how much this thing weigh

...a bloated S class coupe competitor that probably weighs a million pound and has dead dynamics... truly revolutionary by a company that made some fo the best cars of a number of generations...

Not to say it isn't NICE. But its not an 8 series its just a new 6 series replacement. Just like the 4 was a 3 series coupe. The i8 was an 8series, a Halo car different from the rest.

Lol! Yep and it has Carbon Core. Well considering that this thing is above a 7-Series in numbering order, can we really be surprised? But damn, it is heavy for sure! Lol! Considering the 992 911 is right around the corner and will be like 1,300lbs lighter and basically the same price as the M850i, it should make one consider their options. Lol!

Why would anyone have expected this to be a light, simple sports car? It was always destined to be a big, heavy GT, just like the 6er before it, and the original, big, heavy 8er before that.

Even the E9 or E24 weren't light for their era. BMW has really never put a focus on weight.
