BMW is not going to chase the Porsche Panamera afterall. The whole project that involved renewing the 8-series with the BMW CS Concept, got canceled and looks like the Germans took the decision because of the whole European and American financial downturn that involves cost cutting and people being laid off. Instead of investing in the CS Concept, BMW is going to work their butts on future technology that involves EfficientDynamics and project i programs at the moment. If they were to ask me, the model would have been a real success, but these guys are running a business here and they need to think short, medium and even long term.

BMW CS Concept is one of the best concept. It should have not be cancelled. They should try to imply it in the fourth coming year. If the financial situation is down today, it will resume tomorrow. They can gain at that time. If they let it down someother car manufacturer will imply this concept in their cars.
