I think it looks awsome, the suicide doors is yet to been seen so I will leave my oppion open on that one. Bmw need to offer more than the 8 models series if they want to compete.IMO

A C-class with CLS-inspired lines would be a hit, IMO. I think it looks great, but am not sure if the mini suicide doors would be too practical.

Dunno, the RX-8 doors are pretty usable. I'm still pretty averse to calling these kinds of cars "coupes" though.
