Wondering if they might be using a fake soft top on some of the mules to make them all look like verts? But doesn't look that way just really really trying to hide the new coupe profile?

Also I spy the 19inch front, 20 inch rear wheel setup that had been shared by our insider

based on the fact that there is camo not only on the side glass but also on the rear glass UNDER the top... I would say.. yes.. I think they probably are ..

very common for them to use old wheel designs, mismatched wheels, etc on mules yes.

After the massive diaper on the new 1 series, we get this. What the hell is that massive muffler?

Is this the next 6 series? It's a boot....

Looks like the G8x is getting larger standard brakes like the M2 Comp.

I sorta miss the days when an ///M car was only offered in a couple flavors and it was the epitome of BMW engineering.

There are so many models now I feel it's just not as special as it used to be.

Slipping??

It's a boxing/MMA/Martial Arts defensive thing... basically a head fake.

My meaning was they give us something to see, "candy" and then weave the other direction. Basically they make us think it's exclusive but then in reality it's just a head fake to sell us more expensive cars.

Unfortunately every new model is growing in size

I am sure most of us is wishing to stop doing this but like always it needs to match competitors for sale.

Yes, I believe I saw that post too. I was specifically referring to the style of the wheel, not the diameter of the wheels.

There will be a Coupe of course. It's just they are keeping prototypes hidden for now. But we will see it soon. They need to sell the idea of the kidney grille to the general public.
The new 4er is an absolutely stunning car.

Standard package on the 840d. Derived from the actual concept of THE 8.

Always appreciate Scotts words and input, but every time i hear you speak about/describe the new grille it just sends shivers down my spine. Tones of cautiousness and uncertainty and even hesitation are everywhere. Makes me so nervous ... of all the cars to pull this massive identity stunt on, why you gotta f*ck w my baby BMW?! Whyyyyyyyyy?!?!?!?!?

Agreed but it looks as though it may be blacked out with the addition of a rear diffuser.

It's ridiculous how big it is.

Just look at the front and rear overhang.

Sad 😞 BMW is killing the 2er Convertible as well.

FINALLY, been waiting for some news on this for a while. That date couldn't come sooner enough!

BMWRL · 07-09-2019, 07:54 PM

Can not wait to see this revealed. If it looks anything like the CS concepts they've produced the last few years, it's gonna be stunning

First time I've heard you say that, thought you were on the fence with the big grills. Had a more recent look?
