Yeah its fake look:

Blue: different creases, lack of symmetry.
Green: different mirrors.
Red: License plate has obviously been pasted there.
Yellow: current E60 grille has been used.

I also just noticed the paint changes from "Chrome Shadow" to "TiAg" if you look around the car. It look me a while to spot some of these mistakes, I'm shattered, it's about 12.30am here lol....

Obviously the production car will not look exactly like that. This gives us an idea of what it will look like. If the production car look similar to this, I think it'll be a winner.

I dont think it is accurate. I know it's loosely based on the sketch we have seen for the next 5 series, but I think much of this is just guessed. What I dont understand is why the old e60 grille has been used or why different mirrors have been used. I think overall the front looks weak and confusing, the second pic does look quite nice though. I like the roofline especially...

I persosnally dont like the look... it looks way too much like a Lexus + VW. Hopefully this is just a bad photoshop. Im not a huge fan of the trunk line of the E60 but besides that I like the E60.

I think it looks great!

However, I must admit that it looks like a photoshop. It looks like they merged the E90 and E92 3 series and enlarged it to 5 series dimensions, then added the bumpers from the E60 5 series.

Very nice clean lines. I don't care for the current 5 but this one works.

My 3 series lease should just be ending as this comes out... food for thought.

I saw a more cleaner looking photoshop about 6 months ago from a German mag. The front looked similar but the rear tail lights looked more like the E92.

Ugly and it does look fake like someone posted before. The E60 is honestly perfect, I hope they don't ruin the new 5 series..

That looks nothing like the 5 series cars I'm used to! Super high beltline, no moldings, weird headlights, bla bla....

I prefer the current e60
