Ok guys and gals here. I wanted to know what you guys think about the looks of F10 vs the E60. Personally to me F10 has a very conservative look and it doesn't separate itself like the E60 did from the crowd. Yesterday I saw one go by and frankly it looks Toyota ish to me. Funny thing is now Mercs are going after sharp edges and corners in their designs and BMW is going the other way:(.

I also saw a new 650 and again it look bland and Un eventful. What do you guys think?

I know it's weird, but the sharp creases on the hood put me in mind of the "Voldamart" character from the last couple Harry Potter movies - I don't like it. I also don't care for the sharp lateral crease along the side that lines up with the door handles or the sort of bug-eye headlights... I'm sticking with my E60 for the time being.

Cheers, Jon.

I like F10 looks

I like the F10, moreso the interior. The insides are so damn sexy

love the new F10 look its a work of art and hope to cop a 550 next!

I'm driving a f10 535 as a loaner and the inside is cute but still love my e60. Maybe it has to grow on me. Oh and it's not as quick as the 4.8l V8....

i had a f10 528 loaner and that ride was stiff! it wasn't even sports, maybe it was the run flats? but as far as exterior looks i think the f10 got it. especially the m packaged 535 or 550..sexy. interior..i had a fully loaded loaner..and i must say its waaay better than mine.. but then again i have a non nav interior..lol so anything is better.

I really like the rear end of the F10. The front end looks angry-piggish to me, but I do like the hood lines. When the E60 came out I disliked the way it looked, the way I don't yet approve of the overall look of the F10. Interior-wise, I like the E60 better. It feels more solidly built, with the cockpit layed out with everything where it should be. I found the F10's radio/climate controls a bit cumbersome (could be because I know the E60 like the back of my hand). To me there is less storage in the F10 than the E60. I also like how the nav screen is set back a bit on the E60, whereas the F10 has it almost flush with the rest of the panel. But the F10 nav screen itself :heart:

I like the look of the F10 a lot and it will definitely be my next car, but for now? I am enjoying my car payment free life for a bit :thumbsup:

It's definitely not going to be as quick as your 4.8l. They took the same engine in the 535 E60 that is almost the exact same speed as your 4.8l and threw an extra ~couple hundred pounds on it.

That new twin-turbo F10 550 on the other hand is a beast of a car with a tune. It may be my next vehicle. I personally like the looks of the F10 over the E60.
