Hi, I'm new in your forum -- and I like it!
Please allow me to say that I'm Anti-Bangle himself.
Well [:D]
I'd like to share opinions with all those who like and who dislike BMW's new design line. Their late models are completely out of shape (For my taste). Of course, it's a matter of taste anyway.
So I did sit down and design the complete opposite to Bangle's sculptures, just to have something to compare (See the pictures).

Don't hesitate, I can take some punishment. [spank]

Enjoy it [;)]

Welcome to the forum. [cheers]

I really like the pictures, they are wonderfully original and aggressive. I could critique them, but why? They're better-looking than the real 6-series and that's good enough for me.

Awesome pics.... they actually look like a BMW! I like the 8 series style rear and the old m5 style headlights/front. You should send that over to BMW see what they say.[thumb]

That's quite a post for a newbie to the board. Welcome. I like some of the concepts of the pics. I like the back ends the most. Don't know how those lights would work in production, but some purposeful design. Thumbs up. [thumb]

I like the back lights as well. Very original but still very BMW - and even BMW couldn't do that!!! I'm not crazy about the way the front headlights sweep back, I really don't like that design on any BMW, it looks too "asian" for me - like something a toyota, honda or other import would have. I like the classic "blockly" european look better, for a BMW anyway. I like the agressive lines and the side shots are very nice. It's amazing how much of a better job you did than the BMW design team.

Right on, Floyd.

I'm not so sure how happy those rear wheels will be dealing with brake dust on top of the side exaughst tips. I generally like the angular lines from the front...but not so much the fussy lines around the hood in the front though. The wheel wells in front might be a little too exaggerated, but then what's wrong with a 6er looking crazy exotic? I love the blue tinge to the windows in the first pic, far less ghetto than smoked.

I like the images, your very good with graphic design. But the design looks too similar to the Mercedes SLR... I'll take the current 6!

EDIT: BTW - welcome to the site!

Very, very nice. Your rear design looks so much better than Bangle's bungled bulky butt end. Very smooth, sophisticated, classy, and aggressive all at once.
