My Ride: 2005 530i CPO
I am a first time BMW owner (bought in January.) I loved the e60 even before I thought about buying one. A little while before my car was totaled, hence the need for a new car, I rated the models in the following order: 5, 3, X5, 6, then 7. Once I had to look for another car, I was so happy to have the opportunity to buy a 5. I still look at it when approaching it or leaving it and think, what a nice looking car. It is truely one of the nicest car design ever in my opinion. I just hope they don't screw it up too bad with the F10.

I think the E60 is the best looking BMW ever made.
Maybe that's a bold statement, but older BMWs are mostly square boxes. Of course, the E46 coupe ranks very high there...

i was not a fan of the front but it has grown on me and i like the front as well too... but lci rear with wide tires is very sexy indeed.

This morning when i was getting into my E90 3 series, I just glanced on my Sport 5. It just looks like a pure race inspired sedan. The wheels, the low profile tires (factory though), side fenders, rear lights just all said one thing "I am very capable".
While the garage door closed, i looked at the reptalian eye lids and they just absolutely looked monstrous.
Just wanted to share my thoughts.
