great pics, i think two silver or white cars would really show off the lines though. i can't wait to see the f10 in M sport guise, to me the e60 in M sport will be a classic shape someday.

are those 20's on the f10??

Pics were taken with iPhone 4 and E60 is mine.

I think that I will leave E60 as it is today and upgrade to F10 in autumn 2011.

I also can't stand the front of the F10 ... the best E60 / F10 comparison for the nose is to use the Sport Package model, the E60 550i Sport is a beast in appearance in comparison to a "bloated" mini-7 like F10. JMHO.

Nice compare... The F10 looks really nice from most angles. But I have to say it's impressive how well and undated the E60 still looks
