I agree with Slog, the car is so boring. It reminds me of the 5 series generation before the one we have now. the new 7 series front is equally boring. BMW is doing much better job "design wise" to their small cars. I think the couple of girls who designed the Z4 should do the rest of the series as well. these girls are geniuses. :-)

Boring, uninspiring. Now I want to blame everyone who hated Bangle and e60. I always love Bangle's except the 7er.

Jacek Fröhlich is the designer for F10 5er.
http://www.bmwism.com/bmws_designers.htm

For the record, Bangle was responsible for the following models:

E81 / E82 / E87 / E88
E90 / E91 / E92 / E93
E60 / E61
E63 / E64
E65 / E66 and E53

It's personal preference really, some prefer Bangle design and others find it unacceptable. I'd wait for the official photos before calling it boring or uninspiring. After all, F10 maybe one of the best designed BMW has to offer simply for its proportion, profile, and interior. People want a 5er model with the look lasting forever similar to E34, E39.

how can you be so ignorant? Bangle influenced many more designs. Just because he wasnt a "supervisor" on the others doesnt mean he wasnt running things.

All of bangles designs are epic, except the '01 7er, but its facelifted counterpart was absolutely divine.

Please with the ignorant comment unless you are in front of a mirror. Bangle designs were epic disasters! The E60 in particular was herendous.

If the E60 was horrendous why do you drive a 535i like it says under your user name?

Because it drives better than anything in it's class. I lease it in spite of its looks, unfortunately. The F10 on the other hand looks outstanding, and I can't wait for a 5er that has both looks and performance again. Last one IMO was the E39.

F10 5-series rear chop based on latest spy photos

There are still uncertainty on rear light and trunk lid that I'm trying to depict from lines/curves underneath the camo tape. Here is the attempt on F10 rearlight, the real thing would look much better.

Not sure on the side marker, I used X5M style for now.

From a profits and market share perspective, Bangle's designs were successes. BMW's popularity and sales figures grew to amazing new heights under him. I think the, "Don't know what you've got 'til it's gone" mentality is hitting a lot of people. Just because there is no radical aspect of any of the new designs. They are like the BMW mock up of Audi. Very subdued and very tame.

Although, I don't miss dreading trying to figure out which part of the cars looks Bangle was going to turn into an oddity. In particular, I'd like the e60 alot better if I didn't think the headlight looked like they had eyelashes.

You need to flare the fenders slightly more than where they are current at. Otherwise, not bad.

Finally...something that looks good. Bangles designs are horrendous. And I know which models he's responsible for, but thank you anyway Mii. Problem with Bangles design, all his cars want to stand out, and want to be noticed. I believe if a car is really good, it dosen't need to try and stand out, it just does. Bangles cars tried way to hard, and BMW doesn't need that, which is why he is gone, and which is why they are making good looking cars again.

I wasn’t too happy with my rendering above even though the details were there but something was off with the proportions. So I had to do another one (with a bit of humor added in).

This time I started with this base to make sure every area and proportions are correct.


When cartoon animals attack!


And finally without the vinyl camo…

...by God I think you got it! Looks great.
