The car itself will officially debut at the upcoming motor show in Frankfurt. You may recognize some aspects of the 1997 concept — that of the Mini Cooper Monte Carlo. That car was known for exploring many very key elements and design themes which were definitions of the model built by BMW.

Of course, the new model is quite different, and it is taking the manufacturer into a whole new direction. To put it quite simply, the Coupe concept is somehow muscular, encompassing a style that is more than a little bit street rod in essence.

In width and length, the Coupe is just the same as the popular hatchback variation. Specifically, it is 1683 millimeters in width and 3714 millimeters in length. As far as height goes, the Coupe is 1356 millimeters high.

The car is more sporting on the exterior, but inside, things look quite familiar, with the exception of a revised and very attractive layout for the dashboard. It features a number of finishes and leather trim.

I respect Agent Provocateur for actually doing something like this! :)
