Once again....in just a short while after it's release, I figure most (if not all) of us will love it!

oh I'm sure I'll love it, I just wish that the F10 would be a similar (or larger) leap forward design-wise to how e60 departed from the e39

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.

Their 2 door sports coupe is nice - much more aggressive than the 4 door.

If this rendition is truly representative of the base model, then I'll say that it's not bad. Not as good as I have been hoping for, but not bad either. In my opinion, it looks better (in base form if it is) than the E60 in base form. The kit does wonders for me on any Bimmer, so I'll assume that the same will hold true for this one.

The problem with the E-coup? is that it is a C-class underneath.

..with that I say "history repeats iteself". We all remember the transition from e39 (??) to e60(??). Now look how much we enjoy and like the e60.

It's only a photoshopped 7er:

I thought that pic looked familiar. Good catch.
