My wife is disappointed it doesn't look as aggressive as in the design stages... She's thinks it's just a glorified 6.... Most people I know like it... But you can't pitch it against a Porsche 911... Imo....

I agree it just looks like the next generation of the 6. Not totally clear to me yet in what ways it is better enough to justify the big price jump. All new generations of a car are better, but this one is supposedly enough different and better to leapfrog to the top of the range.

Guys - The new 8 IS the next generation 6. It's that simple. The largest GT coupe you can buy is now the new 8 and will only be a 8-series, and is the top model of the range. The 6er will now be a rebranded 5GT. There will be no 6 GC, 6 coupes, 6 convertibles or a M6 in the next generation, they will all be in the 8 series designation.
BMW started moving down this naming convention with the rebranding of the 2 and 4 series cars from the 1 and 3 series. Rebranding the 6 as the 8 is just the final step in the process of offering more products and variants of BMW's current 4 base models (1-, 3-, 5-, 8- series cars) Quote:
1. rear wheel steering 2. active sport differential 3. adaptive suspension 4. more HP/TQ 5. launch control 6. new navigation 7. 8-speed transmission 8. retuned suspension/camber 9. 4 piston fixed brakes 10. lightweight materials None of this comes on your 6-series. You should pay more for it. Here's all the specs. https://f92.bimmerpost.com/forums/sh....php?t=1506312
