The concept study on display symbolises the outstanding design expertise of BMW. The BMW Concept Gran Coupé concentrates the fundamental values of the brand. Its body design authentically captures a sense of superior dynamic performance and high-quality elegance. The shaping style, which follows a coherent pattern down to the last detail, convincingly visualises BMW?s philosophy as an automobile manufacturer. As with the Concept CS 2007, BMW once again sets new benchmarks in the design of 4-door coupes with a distinctive sporty character.

Based on a powerful tradition in this segment, the BMW Concept Gran Coupé carries the essence of brand values and the genes of BMW design into the future. The concept shows the classic features of all BMW coupes: the long wheelbase, the vaulted bonnet with forward-pointing lines, the set-back greenhouse, the flat silhouette, the coupe-style roof line and the short front overhang reflect the dynamic potential of the vehicle. The surface structures and the fact that the design quality is geared towards perfection illustrate the aspiration of the brand BMW to build 4-door high-performance coupes with the sportiest proportions and the most elegant design. - http://www.e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=378296

p.s. - just on homepage of Bimmerpost.com: "BMW insider has revealed that the BMW Concept Gran Coupe has already been approved for production as the 6-series Gran Coupe. The new 6-series line will thus have 3 variants - the coupe, Gran Coupe, and convertible. A shooting brake model concept has also been built for evaluation. The BMW Concept Gran Coupe will make it's European public debut later this year at the Paris Auto Show incidentally alongside another BMW Concept Car that will debut @ Paris. The visual details of the front and rear of the Gran Coupe will be carried over to the new 6er Coupe." http://www.e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=378322

THIS IS THE PRODUCTION MODEL !!?!?!?!!#@?!@!#@ !#?@!OMG. /DROOL

The two closest things I can compare to this concept by BMW is the CLS Benz and the Porsche Panamera.

looks good if it actually makes it to PROD...guess you all dont read Roundel religiously, months ago they noted that BMW had greenlighted the 4door 6 series, i would hope this makes it out, much sleeker than the f10, a winner
