Followed an F10 in traffic today. Looks purposeful and mean. I still think the lighter colours suit it better. The angel eyes are HID white - probably as close as they could get to blue while still calling them white. Managed to film it with my IPhone but honestly not much worth seeing here. Apologies also for the dross that was on the radio at the time.

Long story... radio. As for the driving - that's how half the traffic drives here, constantly changing lanes so I don't think the driver noticed. I wanted to chat at the next lights but he was on his cellphone.

Ok, maybe my eyes have problems, but it resembles so much of the Lexus IS to me from behind.

both models have a dual exhaust, the 535i models have round tips (like the one in the video above). 550's exhaust tips are more trapezoid shaped...
