Just got more details from BMW NA, LED headlights will require the 20" wheel option. Also, the B&O Audio will be offered on the Conv't at a later date, as will the LED headlights. This car is gonna be a stunner!

lmao Look back at previous bimmers, they've always all looked alike... e46 (3er), e39(5er), e38(7er) The 7er usually starts a new generation of design, followed by the 5er, then the 3er, these new models fall in all over the place in-between. History is just repeating itself... Doesn't bother me, adds "exclusivity" IMO as opposed to other major manufacturers in which all of their designs are all over the place...

going more lighter is a lie! new platforms are only getting heavier because of regulations...downsizing engines and slapping on turbos to compensate...

Why don't you call BMW and tell them where they're going wrong - I'm sure they'll get right onto it .

My appointment to choose colors and options is Monday am. Estimated build date is late July, so here probably September...
Lots of lasting decisions to make...

Great! I thought a long time about the blue, but I only liked it with the ivory and there was no way I was going to do ivory with my kids. I got the leather dash with the stitching too. They had it in ivory and black at the Detroit show and it really added a finished quality to the interior.

I think this is one of the sexiest cars BMW has put out in a while. Although the overall length is a bit longer than I would have liked, it's still a beautiful beast!

Sequal,
Re: The articulated roof hardtop What I have heard is reflected in the weight numbers that follow your post. The prototypes were significantly heavier than the convertible. Couldn't be engineered to come in at a reasonable curb weight.

Geez,
I keep getting an acknowledgment of my production number, but no production is scheduled.

Yup, they do. So you are right, I am sort of on the hook. They can leave me dangling as long as they choose, and my early order will not likely have impact on the US release date!

Not sure which is the right thread but anyway... I wanted to have a clear idea of what the next 6GT might look so I took the only official profile pic of the GranCoupé Concept and cleared it out... The silhouette is really disappointing and the rear doors are clumsily integrated. It doesn't at all have the grace of an A7 or a CLS.
But if we straighten and extend the roofline further towards the rear (CS Concept style), the car looks longer, sleeker and suddenly gets that 4 door coupe look Hopefully the real deal will look like this |
