That's an exposed new 5 series bumper! Can't wait to get myself into the next gen 5er.
Hope the design is as immediately pleasing as the new Z4

Wow, is it just me or does this one actually look a bit more promising than what it did a couple of months ago? Looks almost unchanged. No oversized grills, atleast.

The twin kidney grills don't look to be as proportionally large as they are on the new 7 series ... and they don't seem to be as upright - which is a good thing, I think. And the roundel is on the bumper, not the hood - just like the sexy new Z4.

I also like how the lower part of the facia looks like a $h!t-eatin' grin.

Yes and that's good.
