Here's a spyshot of the next 7 series.



Funny comment (see link) about how large the display opening is. (something about being able to stuff a football in there).

It looks to me like BMW is making the 7 series interior much more driver oriented. Note the thick 3-spoke steering wheel. More significantly, they've moved the shifter back to the console - where it belongs - and not on the steering stalk.

I wonder how much of this look and feel will trickle down to the next gen 5er?

I think the interior looks small. Maybe its the new 1'er coupe?

It looks heavily disguised to me.

Good call you two!

You are right ... that looks way too small to be the 7er.

Not only is it heavily disguised but, it would appear that they
have basically placed a fake plastic/cardboard dash COMPLETELY OVER
the real one. Talk about going overboard...

I think that's the real reason that it looks so small.
