I liked it better when each of the models had their own unique persona

-1. It will be old and dated.
-2. The looming repair bills and no warranty will put me in the city mission.
For those who can afford the e60 m5 anytime soon, congrats. Me on the other hand will be saying
to BMW unless i hop in a e92 m3 in the near future.

that IS beautiful, but it doesnt even look like an M TO me.. geez, although i like it, i dont know, im kinda speechless and sad. Im going to keep my car till the lease is up, probably lease another one, then after that who knows. im thinking by that time the E60 WILL be dated. So, again its like knowing your going to break up with someone. not a good feeling..

Had to dig up this thread:
I do agree wholeheartedly that each series having its own unique personality regarding styling was better than the Audi 'one mold,many sizes' philosophy BMW seems to have adopted and that the new e90 facelift, F01,F07 and F10/F11 are too similar in appearance.
Now I'm sure that I'm not alone on that one:
Yesterday I received this brochure from BMW offering a BMW creditcard, on the center pages the image below was printed...

I finally saw the F10 at the near dealer 2 days ago while looking for my gf car. Gotta say that comparing them side to side I still like the E60 way better. IThis guy has just bought a brand new F10, we were pulling out of the dealer at the same time, and he could not stop from braking neck to my car for even one second....
I dont wanna sound cocky, im just saying.....

Glad I'm not the only one who thinks this way.
I sincerely tried to make myself like the new 5er. I test drove it three times by now.
But it just doesn't stir up any emotion other than being a new car with superb interior.
I still love the e60 design.
