Let's not get ahead of ourselves... I remember when the e60 first came out and I thought "wow, that's an unattractive Bimmer" and here I am 6 years later with one in my garage. The LCI helped as did the M Sport package that they introduce near the end of the model life. If this wasn't the case I probably wouldn't have one right now. Point being, if this is what it will look like we probably won't be too keen on it at first but giving it time will soften our opinions.

That said, however, I'm so glad we have angry eyebrows. =)

Well said. I haven't dislike any of the BMW designs in the past, except for the old 3 series hatchback (remember that).

Ah yes, the 318Ti, looked like a Ford Escort - YUCK!!! I think while I am waiting for them to work out the bugs in the F10 I will start accumulating mod parts in preparation for buying one (it'll make things easier)

No way the F10 front will look like that .

Just wait now until September when the first actual F10 Concept pictures will be leaked out...

In August Europe is on vacation.
