First look at next 5-Series? Although its covered in a disguise.
BMW is starting its first tests of the upcoming all new BMW 5 Series in public in the roads of Munich. The photos, taken this afternoon, are showing a first prototype.
Notice the quad exhaust on the test mule.

Awesome.....can't wait.
I think that quad-exhaust spells "Twin Turbo V8".
Although I'm sure that by that time, prices will be astronomical.
Gotta start saving...

Ouch... I hope the F10 will NOT be like the paintshop pics below. I don't like the grille, and I don't like the looks of the entire car...
This feels like a MB CLS but with a BMW badge

I actually would like to see a whole upgrade to the idrive/nav itself. They could almost scrap the whole thing and start over. They could work on the sound system, maybe something on the same caliber as the Mark Levinson systems in the Lexus. And just a lot more luxury looking interior, they are a little bland.

My Ride: 2011, X6 Hybrid . Alpine White , every option. 20" Conti' NON runflats,OEM trunk spoiler , LUX V3 AE's , HP Thunder Fogs , custom front bumper reflector delete........
I think we need to study the CS concept for styling cues for the F10, I have been told that this concept is the foundation for all future designs , apparently the new 7 has borrowed from it heavily so you have to assume the 5 will too... I hope !!
