The old CLS was definitely nicer looking. I'm not a fan of the non-AMG front fascia, however.

I am not sure how the CLS and/or A7 don't compete with the GC, they are the same size vehicles, or is BMW saying the luxury inside the GC is much better? I find that hard to believe especially since Nappa Leather isn't standard.

I am a BMW fan, like the looks of the GC, but would never buy one over the CLS AMG. I guess I don't understand why BMW wouldn't have targeted the Audi A7 and Mercedes CLS 550 on this, why target Porsche? Should have built the 8 series again if you wanted to do that
I totally agree, having spent time in both the new 650 and Panamera Turbo.

The Panamera is nicer and more exotic looking- inside and out.

That being said I would say the M6 Gran Coupe will be a smidge better/nicer than the CLS 63 but certainly not 30-40k nicer which is where it will be priced..

The CLS tail lights looks like a geisha with a heavy application of mascara.

Just sayin

In the looks department, I would pick the A7 and Panamera over the 6GC and CLS. Although the A7 is not a high-performance vehicle by any means, it is stunning in person (and has the best rear IMHO - see pic below) and thousands cheaper. The Panamera looks cool, but is even more overpriced than the 6GC.

Admittedly, I like the Panamera, but it does look a bit like a dog taking a dump. The A7 looks like a cockroach taking a dump.

The 650 Coupe is what, I think, Audi wishes the A5 looked like, and I think the GC is what they wish the A7 looked like.
