Still don't find it appealing at all to me, what do you guys think?

Whoa, nice find, Meister. This looks like... gulp... the real thing? Well, it looks like a large e90 or :thumbsdown:

From what I've seen on spy shots of camo'd F10's, this seems to fit perfectly. It does not look like PS too much either.

Do I like it? Yes. Except that's a car that looks like it competes with MS, Lexus, Hyundai and Audi; e60 looks like it whipped all of their butts - does that make sense?

I'm guessing, not very well

That's the most up-to-date rendering based on the most recent spy shots. I think it's going to look 95% like this one.

I've been thinking about this too ... I have read tons of complaints about it being too plain and boring, but we've only seen the base models with chrome trim except for the heavily covered M5's. The base model is a deluxe family sedan, and even today's base E60 is not that 'sporty.' It certainly doesn't drive like an "Ultimate Driving Machine." I should know. Mine was that way until I started with all the mods to make it more 'BMW.' I'm sure the Sport package and M-Tech additions will make this a very handsome car -- just like it does with today's car.

I too wish it was a bit more adventurous, but BMW obviously wanted a more conservative, consumer-friendly design and that's what we have. I'm excited about the more upscale interior, and I have no doubts I'll be buying one in its 2nd or 3rd model year.

Side note: I parked next to a brand new Mercedes E yesterday ... Want to talk about a boring, stodgy design? There you go.

I dunno, I think this looks pretty good. A bit conservative, but not necessary a bad thing.

Was it AMG? I've seen a few E Class coupes with the AMG kit - thought it looked stunning

PS I just saw the lic. pl.


And the front bumper looks like it got stolen from the Hyunday Genesis Coupe

Looks okay. Definitely will have to wait for the M5 or the M-tech for this car.

Exactly, I like the look of the F10 so far, but would love to see it with the M-Sport pack or the M5. I can see the modding possibilities in the design.

+1 on the cup holders - WTF!?!?!?!?
That has been the only complaint (if you want to call it that) with the E60 - the cupholders truly suck!!!


Quick Reply: Is this what the F10 relly going to look like??
