everything looks good EXCEPT the ugly rag top... when does the coupe come out? Isn't it usually the coupe comes out before the cabrio?

Front looks alright. Rear looks like a Toyota Solar mixed with a Chrysler Sebring. BMW really messed up the look of this car imo. Hate the Lexus style tailpipes. Interior is absolutely gorgeous.

Exterior is so generic. I'll agree that the interior is beautiful though.

I know it adds a ton of weight, but I think BMW missed it without a hardtop.


It looks gorgeous with the top down though.

Only the R8 V10 would be basically the same as a Gallardo. The R8 V8 is not a powerful car, and not even close to the power of a Gallardo.

Again, depends on what year your looking at. But You cannot get an R8 V10 and a M3 over the price of the same year Gallardo.

The coupe sells like crap compared to the vert and also depreciates faster, so BMW led with what the market prefers.

Funny thing is all the people that hate the rag top would probably be bitching about the looks of the hard top equipped car too. After all, that's what the M3 coupe owners seem to have done over time with the E93.
In a car as big as the Six series, a hardtop vert would weigh a ton, totally eat up all the storage space and probably look like it was designed by Rube Goldberg. Don't you guy understand BMW thinks this stuff through and picks the best option? The E64 was supposed to be a hardtop too until they understood the same downsides that apply to this car applied to the last version.

This car competes against the MB SL. I'd rather have the BMW. Yea, it's a blvd cruiser. Nothing wrong with that if it's what you're looking for.

Still has not grown on me. I really hate that all BMW interiors are looking the same.
