My Ride: E60

You know what, if the F10 ends up like this, I'm staying with the E60 a bit more and then going to MB S-class.....

It's definitely a render. The contrast on the headlights does not match the rest of the photo.

Did the designer have somewhere to be and just said "You know what, I'm running really late. Just take the CAD drawings of the 3 series, scale it up a bit and we're done. Sorted"

Dull, dull, dull!

That was not done by the real designer (thank God). Just some people speculate and put some drawings together.
