I don't know. I'm still on the fence about the design.

Sorry to burst your bubble but.... It looks like the e90's headlights have become a hand-me-down. Other than that I like the look of the car. I'm just hoping the tails aren't as large as the seven's

Good thing for us and the sad thing for the f10 is the e60 is the last of bangle designed cars out there completely and the e60 was wayyyyy ahead of its time. It still looks different, overly aggressive in way. It is a "stand out and look at me" kind of car with its huge rear end that is square, huge wheel wells and aggressive body. Its just a mean looking car that is aggressive and a style that will last years beyond its time. It still looks better than the newest MB, audi, infinit, caddilac-and those models just came out.
It reminds me of the toyoto supraa or NSX-cars today that still do not look all that out of place if you see a nice one.
Bmw toned down their styling and the 3 series got the brunt-completely plain. Now the 5 series will look just like a 3 series big brother-boring IMO.
Now whats under the engine and the technology, suspension etc if that is improved that is one thing but appearence alone goes to the e60.
The e60 in 10 years will still look great and modern
