    I like it. It looks as though the designers went back to BMW roots on this one. Far better than the current gen 5 series in my opinion. Cant wait to see it in person.

    Yes much much better looking than the current e60. I also think it looks more like a 3 series too, which isnt a bad thing in my opinion. I like how they moved the dual exhaust further apart, it looks odd on the 335 and e46 m3 how its so close together.

    Thumbs up

    this is damn ugly! lame, boring and without a real design direction! I mean - look at those L-shaped cheesy light clusters at the back! hahaha
    somehow bmw is making life easier for audi every time they introduce a new model to the market!

    FAAAAAR better than the E60...but I have to say that I believe they could and should have make it much better looking...I can help but think "meh" when I see it. For me, the best looking one still is the E34.

    Saludos.

    Nice one ... I like it. It will be a barge though

    But why oh why did they continue with that "fugly" auto gear lever. I have serious issues with that ...

    i really like the exterior, definitely has the sporty/agile look down. i don't see anything particularly new or interesting in the interior, though.

    Ditto on everything except I thought the designed peaked with the E39, loved that one.

    Definitely an improvement over the E60, but that's not saying much -lol. I agree with Benman, the E39 is still my fav.
