The F10 is based on the 5GT not 5GT based on f10
but the new F10 will still have the same engine and gear box as my new LCI e60, I think also the I drive is the same too.
my LCI has the new 7er Idrive
this would be like saying the e60 is based on 525? let me rephrase the question to make it clearer. do the 5gt share the same basic design as the f10 or is the 5gt in the f1X family.

u already bought one!! so they sold one more....

i think they need to revise their engine size and pricing for

X6 which is 3.5 0.85m+?
and the 5GT which is 3.5single turbo upwards 0.73m+?

these should be done in 2.5 and 3L and be in our price range,
i mean i wouldn't pay 0.73m for an fugly car, even if it pushes our abt 330bhp,
i would get a 350 CLS instead!
i hope the F10 will be priced right, and styled right.

right now it seems our E60 will still be fresh into first half of 2010, so
i wait till Springtime for the F10

this car is not design for HK at all.
It is a utility car which is very good if you do alot of out door sports.
Like skiing, ice hokey or if you move alot of goods around.
they say this car will cost about 35,000 to 40,000 pounds so by the time it is in HK it will be about 700k to 800k for the 535gt
also if you take a look at it size it is almost the same size as the 7er, why too big or HK roads :thumbsdown:

I just hope the f10 is 100 time better than this in looks and drive.

yes I got other e60 because I have a big felling that the F10 will not be that good for looks and the prices will be sky high so if the f10 is ugly I will wait for the face lift f10 or I just get the new Audi A5 4door coupe
