The next generation BMW 6 Series may include a four door model along with the traditional coupe and convertible The four door model would incorporate suicide/freestyle doors a la the RX-8.

Here is an article on it and an artist's renderings of what it might look like.

The RX-8 continues to be a styling trendsetter.

 

weak

 

looks like an rx-8

 

NO WAY! They so ripped off the 8.


It even has a front windshield and 4 tires. JUST like the 8. I bet there is a speedometer in there somwhere

 

+1

 

Maybe they'll put a rotary in there too.

 

enough room to fit a 4-rotor

It looks like Holden/GM's next GTO creation.

 

thats pretty cool.

 

Of course, it won't make our 8 as special.

 

they're having trouble selling the car as it is, maybe this will bring some attention to the model.

 

Well the trouble is that it is complicated and ugly.

 

Doesn't that look like our old rx8 concept?

 

haha, well i'll give you that, though i kinda like the 2 door m6, but i think the main problem is that its hard to choose what class its in (2 door, coupe, over 70K) not alot of customers.

 

If you're blind, then yes!

 

Looks like an X

 

Looks sweet but then most BMW's do to me. too bad the 6 series is so expensive.

 

I think most BMW's are overpriced. There is definitely a "brand" surcharge.

 

There's a surcharge for the B, one for the M, and one for the W...

dont forget UGLY .. i just saw this ugly thing again pulling into the garage on the way back fro lunch .. its like a pregnant buick coupe

and it classifies i guess with a bentley gt or benz 65 coupe

 

It needs a rotary.......

 

The backend is really awful.

 

So what you guys are saying is:

1. It looks like an 8

2. It is ugly.

 

I'd agree BMW's need to be about 15% less across the board. But then they don't seem to have any problems selling them. Depreciation on them makes the used market a good bet, just depends on the model (Damn M3's don't depreciate worth ****!) I'm toying with possibly getting a used Z4 as a alternate car and having the 8 as my daily driver. 03 3.0i's are around 22-26k. Thats a ways away and my mood shifts constantly so who knows....

So far I have liked all the BMW's I've driven and I've tried several. If they were cheaper I probably would have gotten one.

 

Compared to what in the BMW lineup? Looks better than a 5 Series.
