Here is an interesting article which appeared in a Australia car magazine today,
It looks like a 5 Series on Steriods, but only built for 4 people.

BMW 8 Series: new flagship due in 2010 Jez Spinks, drive.com.au, September 5, 2008
German luxury car maker targets Porsche Panamera and Mercedes-Benz CLS with a new four-door coupe that is being built by BMW?s renowned M division. BMW?s M performance division has been commissioned to build a new four-door luxury GT flagship that is set to become the German car maker?s new 8 Series.
The new four-door coupe-style gran turismo will be based heavily on BMW?s 2007 Shanghai motor show Concept CS, and will launch in 2010 as a rival for the Mercedes-Benz CLS3 AMG as well as the forthcoming Porsche Panamera and Aston Martin Rapide.
Another interesting development for us all.
Fathers Days in Australia this weekend and my car celebrates being with me for a year, cause I got it last Fathers day and so, no further gifts ever required ever again.
