I looked at the stream, a bit disappointing, the car looks as waited.

But I give it a OK. Waiting to see it with my own eyes.


Here's some pics from http://www.autobild.de/artikel/vorstellung...0-_1012921.html

Very nice indeed, but BMW has played a little bit on the safe side. For me a little bit too safe.
The design is quite conventional, as expected, which makes this a beautiful car but not as unique as the E60.

Maybe I just need some time...

E60 was revolutionary which captured the imagination of young people. Sad to see that we are going backwards....

Maybe it is because I am getting older, but the F10 looks like a much more natural progression from the E39 than the E60 did. I like it a lot and can't wait to see the M-Sport kit and the M5 versions. It tops my list of "wants" for my next car.

Strangely, I feel the same way. Strangely, because I didn't like F10 at first, but the more I look at it, the more I like it. Need to see one in person/drive it to make my final conclusion.

I was really scared about how this would look. The front and side view are much better than I expected. I really like them. The back is alot more boring than I had expected but from all the spy shots and renderings Im happy how the back came out. I really didnt like the way the spy shots and renderings were depicting the back of the car. Now that I see the back it is definitely a relief.

I think they could have come out with a more exciting rear end and we could all be talking about how great and innovative the car looks instead of the mixed feeling most of us are getting. With all that said I will probably be getting one once my lease ends because they did enough to make me happy with the design. Very safe IMO.

Does anyone know the performance difference in the current 535 and the f10? The engines specs seem to be the same... Will anything else contribute to more speed (ie: weight, design etc).
