The Winding Road exclusively reported this scoop a few minutes ago!

We’ve just returned from the unveiling of BMW’s stunning new CS Concept here in Shanghai, and to be honest, we’re not entirely sure what to make of it.

The long and low four-door coupe is definitely better looking in person, but our staff remains split on what to think of it. It’s certainly an aggressive look, and it absolutely carries BMW’s “flame surface” styling in a new direction, but not all of WINDING ROAD’s team here in Shanghai think that it has the visual goods, especially in light of likely segment-mates like the Mercedes-Benz CLS and Aston Martin Rapide.

In any case, this V-12 powered four-place luxury sedan marks out some pretty bold new territory for the marque, and shows that BMW is keen to increase its return-on-investment with its 7-series sedans. And while it’s officially just a concept, we think it portends a coming range-topper for the Bavarians, potentially resurrecting the 8-series moniker

There will be two convertible models the 328i and the 335i. The 328i is made for the buyer who just wants the convertible, as the base engine has a conservative 230 hp. The 335i features BMWs superb 300-hp inline turbo six-cylinder, which we recently tested in a 335i coupe. It can hit 62 mph in 5.8 seconds. There are more power plants planned for the future, but its unclear if all the models will make it to the United States.

The M breaks down! Typical!

The larger Chevy Camaro powered with a thundering V8 powerplant churning out at least 30% more horses than the Bimmer was still no match for the rookie driver’s M3. This clip provides further evidence that in the world of hot pursuit, lighter is better and handling counts more than horsepower.

MW today revealed the M5 Touring — a wagon version of its popular M5 sports car. The second-ever “M” station wagon, the 2008 M5 Touring delivers 507 horsepower at 8,250rpm from a 5.0 liter V10 engine, all while providing up to 1,650 litres of cargo space. The M5 Touring will be offered in select European markets, including the U.K., but it’s unclear if it will ever come to American shores.

The car is coming very soon to BMW. At this years National Hydrogen Association conference in Long Beach, California, BMW showcased a bi-fuel (gasoline & hydrogen) internal combustion engine. It is reported that BMW will start with the 7 Series vehicles as soon as two years. Obviously, BMW will eventually have this available for all production cars, this means that this car will be available to the general public.

Normally, coupes are exercises in vanity: all fluff and no substance. Ego-trumping sensibility. Liberace bitch-slapping Alan Greenspan. No one knows this better than BMW, which has been in the 3 Series game since Gerald Ford was cracking his knuckles in the Oval Office. It’s getting pretty good at the game, as evidenced by the outstanding latest version of the 3 Series, which debuted as a 2006 model in “E90″ sedan form only. As in previous generations, the coupe version is released just when the panting over the sedan has subsided.
