Shark-nosed targa-top coupé hints at potential replacement for 8 Series
A new BMW concept car, dubbed the Skytop, has surfaced online ahead of its official unveiling. A svelte targa-topped coupé, it appears to preview an eventual replacement for the BMW 8 Series. It retains that car’s long wheelbase and swooping silhouette, but introduces several new design cues, with more clearly defined body lines and slim LED lights. Up front, it reintroduces BMW’s historic shark nose, converging around a new, more angular interpretation of the kidney grille.
Lower down are a pair of bold exhaust tailpipes, indicating BMW’s intent to continue building combustion-engined cars. These are situated below a pair of red reflectors, mirroring the arrangement of the Z8’s rear fascia. It is possible that the Skytop hints at a more luxurious take on BMW’s range-topper, given its distinctive aerodisc-style wheels and posh leather-lined interior.
