What Neue Klasse is New Again

It does remind me of the 2000cs. At least they have stepped away from the gaping grills. This looks like a prototype. I'd think the production vehicles will be toned down a bit, for example the bumpers don't look like they would meet crash standards.
 
They should be too embarrassed to release it.
Uh, remember: these are the people who released this:

the front end looks more like a Fisker. i kinda like the reverse cut on the tail end - a little reminiscent of the coupe and the e12. not the worst idea i have seen from BMW

Better than most of the recent lineup, but not the best either.. Weird overly wide grille with lamps oddly embedded in the sides, and more homage to Bangle's slab sided monstrosities...

It could probably be rescued, but given BMW's recent design sensibility, I kinda doubt it will..

You’re correct about the prototype being toned down. Here’s some camouflaged nearer production spy shots that look much less exaggerated in every detail. The overall body shape looks not that different than the current one.
 
Looks like a lot of filler.. just sayin'...

How thick is all that yeller stuff?
Nah, the fender and tail is NOS aluminum, nothing to fill other that making it smooth, and the weld of course. It has been 5 days of sand and fill.
