Hamburg is definitely one of my favourites cities in germany - not even because of the Reeperbahn! It's just a great place to stay, and the peope in Hamburg are one of the most friendly and obliging ones.

Its nice car IRL but I dont like orange blinkers on the US version. Should be white

^^I agree. It's a very nice looking car. Not nearly as misshapen, or ill-proportioned as I would have thought based on reviews and some online pics. In real life, this car really does seem quite compact, and with those wheels and bulging fenders, it has a sporty presence. I still think the sagging lower beltline is a bad idea though.
Though BMW seems to have missed the mark at recapturing the driving dynamics/spirit of the 2002 (seriously, I doubt that's ever coming back but maybe's there's hope with Connaught), the styling cues are definitely there in this coupe (which, like the old car, is more like a 2-door sedan/saloon than various contemporaries).
