This thing is the most beautiful thing to come out of BMW for a LONG time. If only their normal production cars could look like this! It should be nice against the backdrop of Lake Como at the Villa d' Este (I didn't even know it was at Como until I looked it up, actually).

Front half looks like the always beautiful 8-series. The back half looks like something costing $300k+ straight from Italy. Maybe there’s some life coming back at BMW.

I saw that! Looks like BMW is back to hiring designers with eyes!
A reasonably sized pair of front kidney grilles? Amazing!

Not sure I like the paint fade on the back deck but the overall design is stunning!

A beautiful car, that sadly, we will never see in production. Like the Mazda RX vision....

Why a new RX-7 sports car is a dream for Mazda's design boss Ikuo Maeda

According to Ikuo Maeda, Managing Executive Officer at Mazda and the man leading its design department, the Japanese car maker is acutely aware of the need for a flagship sports car – one that could even be powered by a new generation of rotary engine

Finally! Hope they have the sense to make all their cars have this grill.

I agree with everyone above. If BMW designers used this same approach, I would still be driving a BMW.

Yeah it gives me Aston Martin vibes...
Wish it went into production but I really don't think so

Apparently it is... but its going to be 500k and be limited to 50k. But hey, at least us poor people can buy cars like this. Just beautiful. Right? RIGHT??

I'm glad they are producing it but $500K??!!
You can get a Sapphire AND Roadster for less

Yup, 250000+0 is still half the price of the Skytop! Hey, wait a second...

Which will come out first?
