CARBARN | BMW 650i (2012) | Pictures show some of the distinctive features of the car, but closer inspection shows some of the styling cues are very subtle, felt as much as seen.What’s interesting is that the front fenders are thermoplastic. The doors are stamped aluminum and the rear fenders steel.
The creases on the hood flow forward onto the nose of the car. Again aluminum hood and thermoplastic nose. These little touches have to drive the production folks crazy, but they make the styling work.
The interior design was built around the idea of tightly defining the driver’s space. Consider anything covered in leather below the air vents the passenger’s space, the rest belongs to the driver. We should have more on the 6er design tomorrow for you after the 6 Series Convertible Design Workshop lead by Adrian van Hooydonk.
