This about sums it up: Looks good on the laptop screen, totally un-inspiring in person. Honestly...its not a bad looking car per se, but totally boring IMO...I did a once around...and just walked away lol...really boring. I hope the M-Tech package will look better, but I like the E60 a LOT more....ESPECIALLY with M-Tech.

Definately not as stricking as the e60, but then again people said the e60 was too bold. So i guess they tamed it down.
I think the car looks better in certain colors vs. others.

That's the way the E60 looked when it first came out 7+ years ago, so we shall see. I almost bought my E39 after seeing the E60 for the first time, but am sure glad I didn't. I'm truly hoping the same goes for the F10. I have a feeling the M-Tech Kit and a new variety of sport wheels will change all of our minds. I know BMW has many employee's that read all the boards to review various feedback on all new models, and I'd have to believe this is one of the major sticking points -- so much so, that it might even cost them sales. I know a few members on this board that recently returned their E60's and went to other models. Some even went to other brands. Some of these members have been on here since 2004 and are old timers, when it comes to owning BMW's, especially the 5 series. I think that says something. Hoping this means they push for a quicker release date of that kit...
At least people were up in arms when the E60 came out....people hated it, or loved it. It got some real critique...when people see the F10, it seems they just have the reaction of "hmmm...that's cool...maybe I'll pick this up some day...moving on."
