If the car looks like that it will be hard to tell from a 7 series.
Overall I like it, but I still am not used to the upright front grill (5GT style), to me this is clumsy compared to an E60.

it's front wheel overhang, it's what hondas have. and it's what used to make a BMW look great (since it's missing it) and a honda look ugly. Easiest way to go about it is measure the distance between front door crevice and and front wheel well. should be able to fit a foot or more in there.
THE INSIDE SUCKS!!!!!

In net, this car does nothing for me. Oh well, guess I'm in the minority as it seems many just flock to whatever comes out of BMW these days.

Bring back Bangle.. the new bimmers are just getting more boring by each release.
Anyhow all the bimmers are now going to looks so similar and SOOoooo Borrrinng... yawnnn...
I need something to look at and make me think, not just walk right by. The only thing that makes me even notice a new F01 on the road is when its dark out and the cool L shaped lights are on.. during the day it just blends in oh so well with the rest of the cars without needing 22's to make it special.
I realize the goal of BMW but I guess I am use to some controversy and art.

You're kidding right? Right?
That cretin (CB) is the reason i am driving an under powered E39. There is a reason thousands of die hard BMW fans signed that online petition to fire his a**. BMW blinked and softened flame surfacing across the board for the latest models.. Controversy is NOT always good..

The greatest feeling you can get in a gym, or the most satisfying feeling you can get in the gym is... The Pump. Let's say you train your biceps. Blood is rushing into your muscles and that's what we call The Pump. You muscles get a really tight feeling, like your skin is going to explode any minute, and it's really tight - It feels fantastic.. it's as satisfying to me as, uh, coming is, you know? As, ah, having sex with a woman and coming. -> "Arnuld - (c. 1977)"

I think it will look better than the E-60 and I can't wait to see how they "mean it up" as an M5.
