Where has the Orange Eyebrow gone???? They can't get rid of that look. At least have something new, the 5 series would always bring something new with the lights.
E39 facelift bought the Angel Eyes and E60 bought us the orange eyebrows. The Next 5 series has to continue the trend!!!

When I first saw the E60 my response was "..hmm..not too sure about the looks..". 2 years later, I've ordered one

My first response to this pic was of dislike. I've looked at it several times now and it makes me glad the E60 I've ordered won't look like this. The current look is 'aggressive'. The supposed 'new' look is..well..how do i describe it.... 'plain' ???

I can't say it looks ugly or pretty because somebody's going to accuse me of being like an e39 owner when the e60 first came out. But I bet that everyone here will agree with me that there is NOTHING UNIQUE about the looks of this facelift. The current e60 shares the LEAST designs with any other current BMW models. In my opinion, that is a good thing.

Nice 3-Series front with the Toyota Avalon rear. Perhaps my grandmother would like one.

Oh no, that's ugly. Back looks like 7 series, and the front looks like the 3's. No more unique 5-er's look.....

To E60 Engineers, if you're listening.... DON'T DO IT. Stay close to the E60 now... Eyebrows, Angel eyes, and similiar taillights.... this spy photo is a sad sight...

The license plate says it all, "F.U". It's some magazine's writer's/illustrator's fantasy or joke.
