Having seen those videos, wow!
It made the car really stand out, the pictures just doesn't do it justice imo.
This is a more stylish, sophisticated and techy solution to the 7 series.
I really want to see more of these elements and this design scheme in future BMW products.
Impressive!

“We want to send out the message the future is not all about electric cars, but also traditional models with real emotional appeal. Whether that includes an 8 series is not yet decided. But the Pininfarina Gran Lusso Coupe gives an indication of how such a car might look.”

I think it looks very clean and sleek, and probably better in person, most pictures can't capture the beauty in the lines, for in this case not much line but more silky smooth look. More refine over all look than a 6 series, or the Audi A7

And the dog squatting before it poops back end... Honestly I don't see Audi A7 in this Gran Lusso Coupe at all. The front on the Audi slopes, the back slopes, nothing on the BMW slopes! The BMW has a very predominant Shark Nose, tell me where you see that in the Audi A7, because I don't see it. I dare say this BMW is even more elegant than the CS Concept. The Gran Lusso is so modern and sleek I can't stop staring at it.

Here's my take
Mirrors are sweet
Seats look great
BMW needs to take notes on that dashboard. The single hump that fades to the right is what BMW should have done in the f30. It looks like an evolution of E9x on that part.

Outside does look like an old man coupe, or an 8er coupe, but not my cup of tea.
