Agreed, another iteration of the 635csi would be cool!! As far as the weight? I am afraid that the weight of all BMW's is going up with newer safety requirements and equipment. But the new 6er (if that is really what it will look like) is actually more appealing to me than the E63.
I'm still anticipating the Gran Coupe though before I say whether it'll be another GT for me, it would be cool to actually take my car out when its more than just me!!
As for the weight, well we all know what is happenin with the F10, but I have a LITTLE more hope for the 6er and Gran Coupe because unlike the 5er that went back to steel for certain body parts as compared to the e60, the 6er is still using aluminium so I hope/pray/dream that the weight will not go up much (maybe with 100lbs) but no way the 550lb porkfest the F10 took!!!

My Ride: e60
my friend thinks this is sweet; he might go for it next year
As for me; I'm still getting used to the front fascia and grill redesign... but really it is much better in person -- but all of these 'hammer head nostrils' make the front grills look ridiculous

I too like the looks since it take a lot of the CS concepts and brings them forward, though the Banglebutt will always hold a special place in my heart!

OOh, aluminum body panels? Makes me want that Grand Coupe even more. Much sleeker looking than the F10 and oh, so sexy!!!

remember guys, this is the "concept" as real pics of the new 6 are only with the camouflage still on it, I'm sure it will be similar to this but perhaps not an exact copy, so there is still some hope for those that are on the fence about this....
