What's funny is that the 8er is probably one of the better looking models in the range, and bmw blog interviewed dealers and they said a lot of 6-series owners were unhappy with design and of course the astronomical price increase. I can't imagine what they think of the 2GC and 4er if they didn't like the 8 and honestly I don't disagree with them. The 8 isn't bad, but the 6 in all variations (especially gran coupe) was just beautiful.
