Maybe this would help bring the Bangle haters back...it was designed by the BMW DesignworksUSA team.





very much digging the old James Bond Aston Martin look to the vehicle...

Not bad at all! Very distinctive looking, except for the taillights which look like they were taken directly from an Acura RSX.

I love red interiors, too. Anyone else remember when you could get an interior in something besides gray or tan?

Chris Bangle still deserves to be shot for ruining the 7-series and then carrying over those horrid styling cues to the 5 and 6, though. I'd take a mid-late 90s 7-series over a brand new one hands down.

We shall see how this car plays out. I like the z4/3 better personally.

looks kinda nice, but 1 thing i hate incars above all others is red leather interiors. i think that car would look infinately better in any color other than red...or maybe yellow or orange as well..

I like the lack of a b-pillar. A neighbor had a very clean old mercedes, had no b-billar and it looked awesome with the windows rolled down.

I like it, but man, if you're gonna put out a picture of your car design, at least finish it BMW. Look at the last pic. Its just a big red sea for the interior. Wise up man

I'd be interested to see how the door opens with that one big window.

I suppose that is difficult to say .. it is only a concept car..

On the other hand, this "James Bond look" does not exactly look cheapish

LOL, a cheap BMW, that's a good one.

It looks like an old Bavaria Model mated with a more prestigious Aston Martin to give it a cool 60's look.

yea.. looks like i agree with Ducati999, but i don't see the jaguar characteristics in the front. In what way does it remind you of that?
