I like the addition of the big red button on the dash...I can only assume it's either a missile launcher or maybe a passenger ejector seat activator...

No one seems to have commented on the fact that the i-drive screen is no longer resessed in the dash. I think that this would make it subject to allot of glare from the sun shining on it. It would also make it easier for people in other cars to see it when traveling at night. :thumbsdown:

Good point! That little ledge in front of the screen on my 2008 is perfect for my phone and sunglasses. It has rubber surface which keeps things from sliding around....

That is a good interior design? We'll have to agree to disagree on that one...

guys i think some comments here are a bit overdone. a cramped interior in a 5 series? sun glare in the idrive screen because of bad layout? come on, this is a GERMAN car, they would do anything but getting such basics wrong. this will probably be the biggest 5 series ever, how can it be cramped inside? some of these comments are really similar to the guy with the "two knobs on the radio" - looking twice and a bit of thinking really is the way forward.

seriously, I respect everyone's subjective opinion, and I also have mine. But lets be a bit more thoughtful when judging what we see on the pics. Its great to have such a community here and it will be even better if we try to assess the F10 in a more thoughtful manner.

No, I wasn't shopping for Porsches but just killing time while waiting for my car in BMW's shop next door....
