With the FXX chassis BMW's nearing the end, The FXX 6er goes down as the best BMW overall for the FXX generation to me. Has everything you really want in a car - performance, utility as a 4-door (Gran Coupe), aesthetics.

So now we have the M upgraded to CP and M GTS to compete with AMG S and AMG BS, but also Audi S/ RS Plus models.
Important efforts done by each German manufacturer on the sport and practical car market! With the G Series I think that M will be in front due to superior chassis |

Looks good. The front looked dated at launch and has not aged well though. If rumours are true that next gen will shrink a bit - someone at bmw clearly had a size issue" when they designed this monster - it will be good news.

so a tune and a set of wheels... yawn..
they now break out every individual variation of everything. when it use to be just e46 for the coupe, sedan, convertible, wagon it only burned one number. now they are giving everything its own internal designation along with really long badges on the back. its a lil redundant now. example is f10 is the 5er while f11 is the wagon, f12 is the 6er coupe, f13 is the vert, f14 is gran coupe. and then they skipped calling the m3/4 the f30/32 and skipped right to the f80/82. now mini is included in there as well since they share platforms. i think we are already up to the g30 (next gen 5er)

F1x - 5/6 series/X5/X6 F2x - 2 series/X3/X4 F3x - 3/4 series F4x - X1 F5x - Mini F8x - M They still haven't used the F6x, F7x or F9x numbers, but perhaps the jump to G-series signifies a change in electronics and technologies as well so they wanted to differentiate from the F-series.

That's very unconfirmed at this time. G90 seems more likely/appropriate. |

*Gran Coupe, goddamnit.
My neighbor in TO had one in Liquid Silver with the Amaro/Platinum two tone full leather interior and CCBs. That paintwork is insane. The car looks permanently dripping with clear coat, I love it. Horrible pic: |
