3.0 CSL what a classic!

Cru Jones · 13 May 2015, 11:47 PM

first the i8, now this? new design language for BMW developing?

Cru Jones · 28 May 2015, 12:07 AM

i had kind of flippantly dismissed this car based on the one photo above, but, now, seeing more, it ain't half bad.

more photos be clicking here and here.

I like it a lot

GB-man · 28 May 2015, 12:48 AM

Ugh between the humongous kidney grills and what they did with the front end in general....I can't say I am a fan. Considering how good the lines were on the original, this is hard to swallow imho

Kingair · 28 May 2015, 05:37 AM

Everyone loves the Batmobil !

brandrea · 28 May 2015, 05:51 AM

Not my cup,of tea. The head light treatment looks a little bit like lazy eye

Shorter kidneys and it'll be perfect

I like it but agree with your input.

IMHO, its really stunning but the front looks like drunk, unlike the previous other models it looks mad... get off my way kind of look!!!

This isn't really the previous model. It's the current m4. The csl is a concept car to celebrate the brands heritage and give cues to future design language, hopefully not too many cues based on this. Designer should be fired amd hit with a broom in the arse on his way out

looks like a transformer ,,,,, not for me.

It has potential but as is it's a bit overdone. I'd like to see what the final design is before making judgement.

stockae92 · 10 June 2015, 05:06 AM

The only thing I like so far is the side rear view mirror :)

I think the front looks like a Spanish conquistador with a seriously curly moustache. Has to be the ugliest front in a car this side of a Pinto or a 7 series come to think of it.

Side on and rear cartoon like but not as ugly as the front.

Just as Porsche should look back to the 928 for inspiration, BMW could do well to look at the 635 for an idea on what style and class looked like. Thinking of buying one of these myself.

Chewbacca · 11 June 2015, 02:05 AM

nice effort but i think this is more an exercise to remind people BMW could still find their mojo again.

doubt it'll see a showroom.
