I think it looks great.

I don't see this car taking too many sales away from any current BMW model, including the 5 series. Base price for the 528i and 535i are about $45-$50k, respectively, which is the bread and butter of 5 series sales. I wouldn't think that many people shopping entry to mid level 5's are going to be willing or able to spend 6 series money on a car. Base 6 series prices are currently $30k over the base 5 series. It may take a few sales from the top end 5 series, but probably not enough to do any harm. Then you have the 7, which starts at about $70k. Once again, I would think that people shopping 7's would not be interested in the much sportier and smaller gran coupe. The coup-ish design of this car will set it in a catagory all by itself, imo. Sort of like the Mercedes CLS.
