I like it a lot. There may be a little to much empty space in frontal area but other then that its a cool concept and it would be awesome if BMW started building stuff like that.

I think that it is a great Modern Interpretation of a CS. It s not to slick yet still has great classic lines with a current feel. I would buy one.

There is something very cool about this concept. I had dreamed of this happening ever since the Z8 came out. I believe this needs further refinement in the details especially in the front and rear but I can only hope that the big wigs at BMW follow through with producing a modern version of the classic CSL

i'd rock it, instead of extending those GT, grancoupe..
but in the other hand, the classic won't be as special.

I personally love it. My only complaint would be miniscule kidney grills. Aside from that, I love the back and the general stance and simple interior of this vehicle. Like an earlier poster mentioned, I feel sorry for the new 6 series.

Cut out about 8-12" from the overall height of the car, but from the middle of the body, and you have a winner. It should be wide and short/low like the original.

I agree the front end could use a little tweaking to look more like the E9 (which is one of my favorite BMWs) otherwise I like it.

BMW Build This! This thing looks mean and puts a great stamp for the BMW brand.

Does everything need to have huge wheels and high beltline?
Good looking car, but looks incomplete without bumpers or maybe a more aggressive front fairing. I know bumpers are out of fashion these days but it looks like something is missing front and rear on this car. Also, ugly in brown, amazing in red. Build it! |

Love it or loath it; it is makes an impression.

We need ideas and designs like this. Barring the GC, the Z4 or M4, few cars in the range create an impression. Come BM! Let's rock the boat a little please! |

Great start. CS was a great car, and with some massaging this could be a very cool car. Bavaria!

The best parts of this concept will never happen because of pedestrian crash standards.
