I've held this on my desk for the past few weeks now with eyes often glancing over the picture trying to catch a glimpse of the cars design similarity to the Holden Monaro.
With the exception of the read boot and the obvious front grill the bonnet and mid-lines seem to immitate that of the Monaro.
Obviously the similarity would end there with all else being completely european from suspension and engine tunning to the trademark BMW interior.
The car for me doesn't jump out at me and wouldn't make me drool like Homer Simpson over pork spare ribs but would be interesting to view up close.
Naturally the 650i houses a V8 engine that produces 360bhp from 4.8ltr engine pushing outto 60mph in 5.3 seconds and again limited to 155mph atthe top end.

Saw one last night -- the cabrio version. Really nice-looking top with that Ferrari-like cut at the back. But the butt is a disaster worse than the 7-series, and the front won't tug on the heart strings either.
Can't wait until that new design fellow Adrian something, resposible for that absolutely stunning BMW 4-door coupe concept, gets his hand on the redesign plans for this car. Between this car and the new Merc S-class coupe, I'll take the Aston Martin DB9.
