I cannot see how Jos van As's "explanation" proves that the 5-series is not a scaled down 7-series. What he says is not a proof, it is just a rambling list of the obvious. I am also not sure if any explanations or proofs are needed. Both series are made by the same company, obviously they are related. Others in the thread also mentioned the role of Mr. Bangle designs in shaping modern BMWs. I am among the many people who respect Mr. Bangle and like his designs. Bangle ideas are original enough to be flattered with many imitators, and I suspect that many who say they dislike Bangle designs only try to conform to what others say about them.
