In the current issue of Roundel (page 31) there is a summary of BMW's new model releases.
They confirm that the F10 5 series will debut at the March 2010 Geneva auto show. But now that we know that some official photos are due out soon (Nov 23), doesn't March seem like too long of a gap? Might the launch move up sooner now? Anyway, an interesting additional comment is that the M5 will follow the standard 5 series by about 6 months! :D Cool - I figured it would lag by one year. Another highlight is that the new 6 series will be introduced in the second half of 2010 (as a 2011 model). That also is sooner than I would have guessed. And a final nugget: the CS Concept Coupe may not be completely dead. The talk now is that the car may be built as part of the next-gen 6 series. :wow: Now that is definitely a car I want to see ... and drive ... and own! |
Soooo exciting! The 5 series starts production in December! I still hear that the debut is march. I dunno guess we will have to wait and see. :whistle:
Very exciting news on the CS Concept as well that car is hot! and I would love to own that as well! haha :lol: |

Thats just another proof that we are spoon-fed by BMW's PR machine all the time. All of these "spyshots" are clearly set-up by BMW, and I mean really ALL of them.
If that was not the case, we would have seen at least a few 6-series "spyshots" - we have one year until launch of the 6-series and not even a single pic!?? At least that means that the company is still able to surprise us, if and when it wants - and the fact that they haven't shown us any 6-er pics, means just that (I hope) - the big surprise will be the new 6. Maybe in CS-style?? |

How is it possible for anyone to test a new car without taking it outside? And if it goes outside, someone with a camera or a phone is bound to see it and snap a pic and post it somewhere (on a forum, maybe? :think: ). Anyway, I hope the above facts and my nasty attitude have taught you a valuable lesson :lol: :lol: |

alright alright... you got me here :bash: :blush:
but I'm still wondering why I didn't see any 6 spy shots on all these car websites that I follow..? the 5 is there every week with new shots.. :think: whatever. but you know what? I was still right at the end of my post - my completely blind assumptions about a CS-like 6 turned out to be pretty much on the spot, at least judging by all those renderings :D you can't deny that :P |

Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding! YOU WATCH THE WRONG WEB SITES! Well, rather, you don't watch the ones you - apparently - want to be watching. But this far into my rant, 1. who's still reading this crap? and 2. Does it really make any difference? What is all this for? Why are we alive? See the answers to these questions - and MUCH more - in my next post :P :lol: |
I hope this is NOT it:

in answer to "which renderings?" - I mean all these:
http://www.bmwblog.com/2009/05/31/spy-vide...1-bmw-6-series/ http://www.bmwblog.com/2009/04/15/most-lik...ouldnt-mind-it/ http://www.bmwblog.com/2007/06/14/2011-bmw...-controversial/ http://www.bmwblog.com/2009/10/19/new-rend...1-bmw-6-series/ with watching the websites I mean the european car magazines, which regularly publish 5, 3, 7-series and M-cars spy shots, as well Audi and MB spy shots... apparently I haven't been reading the 6-series blogs, where the pics appear. you got it now? and on everything else - you are right, which reminds me that we are all wasting our time here.. |
