I'm not so sure about the reliability of the photoshop- even so I personally quite like it.

As MPV's go- and if the R-class is the direct competition, it looks quite sporty. But then, I find the R hideous.

It is a photoshop.. and I kinda like this car.
This is at least better than the R-Class.

I like the headlights.. I'd call the rear ugly.. the body shape looks like a Prius. I accept this.. nice job. Hope it really look like the way on those photoshops.

well, the silver one, on the second posts, is actually a E90 wagon with different bodykits, though i think the rear is abit different..

It's kinda cool with that coupé/fastback-shape. but it looks kinda... clumsy? The front is too big and boxy compared to that rear end.
It's just a chop anyhow. I'm sure it will eat eight tons of crap out of the R Class.

Photoshopped, bulbous arachnids. The only car that looks remotely nice was the red Shooting Brake.

All the rest look like hunchbacks.

Yeah the shooting brake thingie is hot. That big sports tour looks like a hippopotamus, but the areodynamic efficiency of the rear end prawns.

Rather then wasting time and money sueing them, you could send them a picture of what you think it should look like and see what they say. But before you do, make sure we approve of it.

Designing a car is not as easy as you think it is.

if i didnt do it with PS, instead with pencil, i could make it better...my mouse sucks..:p

but if the 2 pictures are really going to come out like this...id better not see it in the BMW dealers in hong kong...id like to see that shooting brake concept and the E90 similar thing
