Let's see: Front air damn ripped off of a 5 series, side view mirrors ripped off a 6 series, character line straight off a 3 series coupe, rear bumper/exhaust setup ripped off from the 3 series as well, and the hoffmeister kink was ripped off the outgoing 7 btw.

The horrific taillamps and the smoothed out rear trunk lid (most likely smoothed out from a current 7 series trunk lid) are all just implemented in the CS body. Bleh.

There's absolutely no flow in the back. BMW's have always had flow. That chrome strip and the taillights are completely incongruous. No professional designer would make such a flawed design.

Where's Boost Nation. He hates these just as much as me lol.
HAHAhaha nice man, i read your post after i posted mine and when i got to the part where you mentioned i hate these just as much as you i was like

But yea dude, i deffinately agree, all these photoshop pics and "intrepretations" are so lame. They never look anything like what BMW actually ends up producing. They look so freaking stupid too. They always have a bunch of parts from other cars put together. The only things that look close to what the production models are like, are the concepts that the company ITSELF actually creates a full scale prototype of.

It's fun to guess. And sometimes you'd be suprised at how accurate some chops can be. It just depends on spy pics etc. When more of the camo is taken of the 7 series I bet we'll see some fairly accurate chop...

I think it looks much better than the current 7, especially the rear.

Looking back at these old threads, it's scary to see how close this interpretation really was, considering how long ago it was made!

+1 !

Dont forget that people sometimes get access to official pics and invitations to press launches before the rest of us. I wouldnt be suprised if these chops were based on something concrete because that rear is SO accurate!

That may very well be the case.^

I don't understand how the guy who did this photochop could identify the shape of the headlights, taillights, character line, and even the creases above the front bumper so far ahead in advance of the car's unveiling.
