There is no doubt that the design team has a higher budget than usually this year. BMW would make one strong concept per year, thats it. Such as the Gran Lusso, Zagato coupe....

And nobody can convince me that the engineering budget hasn't shrunk

You hire a cool-hipster guy with an exotic accent and have him design a vehicle the way he designs utensils, instruments, dolls, furniture?? Man, BMW really has money to burn! Why not redesigning the CSL concept or give all BMW owners a gasoline gift card, I bet we would all be very happy!! much happier than seeing the "futuristic-minimalistic" raptor-face-ship.
