R & T : New 6 series coupe

"Power will come from the 325-bhp 4.4-liter V-8, the same engine in the BMW 745i."

For a new model, the interior looks dated.

Same here, I like the look of the coupe. I don't really care for the new electronic gadgets on some cars.

I think it's a gorgeous car! The back is really nice actually

The side profile of the car is even nicer...

I think its absolutely GORGEOUS. From a side view it has a slight resembelence to the Vanquish. Again these are my opinions and observations.

I agree, the new 6-series really is a gorgeous car! I hate to say it but Bangle did an excellent job on this one!! I guess it just takes time and unfortunately he used the the wrong Bimmer(7-series) as his ginnypig!
