Less camouflage now ...

Looks conservative, elegant, nice lines and balanced proportions - not a radical remake of the E60, but a softening from the Bangle era. Not sure it's gonna make me run out and get one right away.

That's either a 535i or 535d....
probably 535d because the earlier spyshots with the white and black
cars were diesels, so..

Hmmm... I surely hope it looks better than this. Not impressed so far -- I prefer my E60 over this....

+1 still prefer the E60, but at least the "pig nose" is gone in these shots. I was really not feeling that. Overall it looks like they are getting closer to a really nice design once it finally rolls out. Our German members really should share pics the second it comes out there in March, I think.

hello to everyone!

I think as soon as the new f10 will came out, we all would be ready to change our e60, although the e60 is a very modern car.
The e60 is now about 6 years, but it looks never than the new e-class for example.

I am looking forward to get the new f10...

Defintely not as radical or daring a design as the E60. The side profile has shades of the E39, which I loved.

Looks like it will not be a hideous design after all -- just more conservative then E60.
