I'm not liking the lower front fascia treatment ... too much shiny stuff. Almost "Buick-like" :-)

Though similar to the upcoming 3'er / 4'ers I'm not enamored with that look there either. IMHO, less is more. If I thinking of repalcing my '13 and a potential buyer of the '14 model I'd be more inclined to look for the simpler "M" look assuming they don't over-dress that too.

naw, never was a fan. it always looked like a bloated turtle to me. my two favorite 5s are E34 and E60, quite possibly in that order. id murder for an avus blue E34 M5.
