2015 BMW 6-series Launched

I kind of like it. Even if it is front-wheel drive.

Lol wut?

I wish that they had at least one pic of the coupe or the convertible.

Those look nothing like this.

In particular, every 6-Series model has "flared wheel arches and horizontal lines across the rear emphasize the cars' wide track and resultant surefooted handling." Wider is better, as we all know.

To be honest, that would have been an improvement.

Bring Bangle back. At least he had a sense of proportion.

Herp derpy derp... it has a twin grille? Yeah it looks identical....

Sense of humour failure from BMW enthusiast in a market where Pontiac doesn't exist, or... unfunny joke is not funny.

The Grand Prix looks better.

Honestly, it's not that funny of a joke.

Well, it's Jalopnik.

Bah, grinch grinch humbug. It was worth a good chuckle. What was even more chuckle-worthy was that some commenters actually took it seriously enough to point out... "hey, dude, that looks like a Pontiac..."

And yeah, I actually like the Pontiacs better... BMW can get the 3 and 4 right, why do they have to have such ungainly snouts on the other cars?

It's the vaguest of vague passing resemblances... and probably one that only US readers would get at all. It's about as funny as comparing a Fiat 500 to a Porsche 911GT3.. in other words, Not. Seriously, of all the look-a-likery in the automotive market today this was a poor choice.

Based on the amusing overreaction after the fact, looks like a little of Column A, little of Column B.

Well, it's Jalopnik.

That's true.
