New 5-series

[2o6]

Predictable, evolutionary, but pretty handsome.

Probably in my future in a year or so when I retire the M5. I'd love a 540i with the turbo six. More than enough really.

I guess I'd have to see it in person, but lots of creases on a plain body make it seem like a cheaper car that's faking luxury. Maybe in real life the proportions will carry it. Still, it's nice to see a car with glass.

I spotted this on the way to Vegas not too long ago



from what I can tell it'll look exactly like the current 5 with updated front and rear fascias.

Agreed.  Less of that lower crease on the doors would probably look nice. But of course...in person...who knows. They might have (probably) altered the photo a bit to emphasize the body lines.

Still a good looking car, though.

Seems like the same amount of creases as the current cars, which look great in person.

Looks like a shrunken 7-Series. Not bad.

If Hyundai/Kia were tasked to "improve" the F10

There's a couple more, but I think the vent behind the front wheel draws more attention to the lower ones.

I also prefer the center stack of the F10 (disregarding the screen, as everyone is doing it that way now)



I don't like the look that the console and center stack are two different piece.  It doesn't flow at all.

[Raza]

It's different?

[12,000 RPM]

Remember the days when the 5er was the #2 pick in this class? Seems like such a long time ago. This does nothing to bump it up the ranks.

[cawimmer430]

I wonder if I spotted the next-generation 5er Touring...
