BMW's latest concept channels the Z8 and the 503 roadster to offer a stunning take on an M8 replacement
The new BMW Concept Skytop incorporates cues from the Z8 and 503 Roadster. It features the 617 hp twin-turbo V8 engine from the BMW M8 Competition. The concept is painted in a special gradient finish by one of BMW 's master painters. Update May 26: We've included new live photos of BMW 's convertible grand tourer concept from its debut at Concorso di Villa d’Este on the picturesque shores of Lake Como in Italy this weekend .
The paint job is actually a gradient that was crafted by one of BMW's most experienced master painters. In the rear section, the reddish-brown tone of the roof flows into the muted silver with a chrome shadow effect on the exterior paintwork. Look even closer, and you'll notice conventional door handles are absent, replaced by discrete winglets. Sticking with those details, BMW says the LED lights are some of the slimmest units around, custom-made for the concept.
