This is probably old news by now, but I finally got around to reading some of my car magazines.
Anyway our British friends from CAR had spyshots and some details of the redesigned 7er (MY2009).
Sorry, don't have a handy scanner so no pics, but it's probably floating out there somewhere in Internet rumor flotsam. I believe Edmunds had some spyshots that were pretty representative.
Personally, I like the new look, especially the front fascia and headlights.
Also, to my own personal glee, the return of the center mounted drive shifter (as opposed to the shift stalk currently on the E65/66).

you sure CAR said anything about the drive shifter ?
In fact, CAR said something about the shifter not only going front/back (like the Step), but also sideways, as in left-right.

mb shifters go sideways
Funny that Mercedes made theirs identical to the 7-series located on the steering column and now BMW wants to put it back onto the center console.
