Here is a remarkably florid write up for what was basically a leather package on a 7 series.

The L7 was around longer than I thought, but the L6 was apparently one year only.

Actually a lot better looking in person the I expected. Kind of a turtle looking back but worth it for assumed hatchback.

I saw one this past weekend in Greenville SC. My wife had a similar comment about the shape, which doesn't bode well for our test drive in one week. (it would replace her Fusion, which she LOVES!)

It’s actually not a hatchback; it’s a standard trunk. But the opening is really big.

No photos but it's not that often that you see a car you've never heard of from a brand you've never heard of.

Saw a CUPRA Formenter on the road today with Mexican plates. CUPRA is the high performance sub-brand of SEAT, a Spanish VW subsidiary.

Also saw a Kei pickup but the CUPRA was way more surprising.
