Real taillights are too big. Looks like an economy car. It looks too much like the 3, between the lights and the side crease. I hope they don't do it that way.

The head and taillight design suggests a more serious facelift compared to previous models

I don't think it looks ugly but I don't think it looks good either.

IF that does indeed represent (or at least approximate) the "facelift", I'm very disappointed with how dramatic it appears to be.

THAT is no facelift. for me it's just a prototype car for the new one in 2009
And if anything, this is AutoBild's rendition of the facelift, NOT of the next generation 5 Series...they wouldn't even be making predictions like that 5 years before the next 5 is due to ship.
