Be interesting to see if the F10's come with 166 wheels..
It looks like you get 166s on the front and 124s on the rear.

It'll be very interesting to see the newer rim designs that BMW has for their F10's.....

If the pictures are somewhat accurate, I like the front but not the rear.
The length of boot is very short, and it has a very hatchback look about it.

You don't think BMW might do what Skoda did and have a two hinge boot opening, so you have a boot and a hatchback?

No, the structure would lose too much strength.

I bet you anything it will not look anything like pictured. These are all computer designed pictures based on new generation bmw models on the street currently and the covered up f10, bmw does an amazing job hiding every aspect. Its to early to tell.

I absolutely agree with that. The only reliable source would be comparison with the new F01 (as a general trend of the BMW design, not for details).

A lot of tire noise though. It seems other brands are bringing back rear wheel steering, which never caught on before. Maybe the F10 will get it.
