At the 2013 Concorso d’Eleganza Villa d’Este the stunning collaboration between two great companies was unveiled in the form of the BMW Pininfarina Gran Lusso Coupé. The same car is set to make its North American debut on the Concept Car Lawn at the Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance.
The close collaboration with the Pininfarina design team resulted in a new automotive personality brimming with character and ready to join the high-end luxury class: typically BMW and bearing the refined imprint of Pininfarina.

Generous surface design and taut contours highlight an elegant vehicle body, while hallmark BMW proportions imbue the BMW Pininfarina Gran Lusso Coupé with authoritative dynamics even before a wheel has been turned.

Enhancing the powerful impact of the side profile are convex tamperings that add a dynamic elegance. The exterior symbolizes the modern harmony between power and elegance encapsulated by the V12 engine under the hood.

On the inside, the BMW Gran Lusso Coupé shows this consummate blend of contemporary elegance and luxury. Here the melding of exclusivity, comfort and sportiness makes for a unique interior experience.  The fluid underlying geometry of the cabin and the classical BMW driver focus are lent a thoroughly new touch through the influence of Pininfarina.

Even though a lot of people are currently talking about an 8 Series revival (being spurred on by this amazing creation), BMW already said that for the near future such a project is not a priority. However, that leaves the future open for discussion and that's all we need. For now.
