    Nice, nice, nice, nice, FAIL. double FAIL


    Why does the 5 series need a 116" wheel base? The E38 7 series was smaller than this 5 series.

      Imho, the new 3, 5 and 7 series look the same to me. The five looks good, just it kinda completes the morph from 3 to 5 series. Nothing really unique.

          Looks like they took a spatula to the hood when they were working it in the clay model stage. I feel they could do so much more but don't.

          I guess the 1 is the new 3, 3 is the new 5, the 5 is when you can't afford the 7, and then the 7.

          Have you seen the new A4 in person? It's huge too. They get bigger every year but this is getting ridiculous.

            If you didn't tell me it was new, I would of thought it was any other bimmer on the road.
            They need to make one with a square hood someday.

                look at the size of the grill growing in that generations picture. the way i see it, it will be as big as the e28s full front grill in a few more models, so we will be back to good styling!

                      Still don't like it. Still looks like Bangle's hand at work.

                      How did we get to the place where the toughest looking cars on the road are entry-level Mercedes? :(

                        I like it over all but I don't care for the overly large kidney grills. I also don't like them on the new 7. Makes it look like a Pontiac. I think the hood will look less busy in person. Something about how the reflection is hitting the hood in the picture. I like the fact that it looks like a big 3 series. I mean,,, that's the way a BMW should look. One should look sorta like the other with size and appointments being the difference. IMHO.

                                It is fucking ugly. They stopped making good looking BMW's after 1995, when they went from dual individual head lamps, to a single lamp unit.
