I think that matches more of the F10 interior (from the F10 interior spy pics). I would imagine the F01 7 series to have a few more controls and a wider center console.

...something about the center console reminds me of a more retro look...maybe its just the coloring of the picture?
It looks too finished to be a product with two years to introduction.

Nope that is the new 7-series interior.

It was confirmed by AutoBild.

Materials are still tempory, but the actual design has been finalized.

Not liking that rendering at all..looks to be a step down (in looks anyway) from the current 7 series...looks like someone chopped the nose of a 5 series onto the current 7 series (sort of)...very ungainly looking.

From BimmerFile.



Not feelin' it overall. I was expecting more of the Concept CS in the face. This doesn't look very well proportioned in the front, so this may be just a best-guess rendering.

The side view looks good, and the rear doesn't appear as bulbous as the E65.

Whatever the case, I hope BMW advances the look of the 5-series more so than they seem to have done with the 7er.


I'm betting that this is a photo of the actual car.

See that attached photos. These are photos that were on the internet back in early March '08. The car in the photos was supposedly the new 7 series in Australia for a photo shoot.
