looks like a big version of the current E90 3-series... obviously there is still lots of camo, but if you "read in between the lines"

F30Toad · 12-05-2007, 07:01 PM

It certainly looks a lot like the 3 series in camo but besides the hoffmiester kink and 4 doors I'm not sure how you can tell what it looks like.

Mark · 12-05-2007, 08:11 PM

Seems like the body aft of the A-pillar will follow a more 7-series body line..

d3l0n · 12-05-2007, 11:49 PM

i cant wwait for that 4.0 or 4.4L turbo engine! pumpin 400hp... 555i! omg...

FifthStreetz · 12-06-2007, 02:28 AM

looks interesting, the back reminds me of a 7 series.

seven_227 · 12-06-2007, 02:51 AM

Looks like an early M model testing, you can tell from the wide fenders and quad exhaust.

the_stranger · 12-06-2007, 12:09 PM

BMW is making their cars bulkier as years pass by. The sleekness that older BMWs had is gone.

Zirenz2006 · 12-06-2007, 12:39 PM

I look forward to seeing the F10. I may go back to a 5 seires by then. I still miss my 545i.

18LLC · 12-06-2007, 01:03 PM

the trunk looks like the b4 face left 7er.

rubber_ducky · 12-06-2007, 01:14 PM

Not feeling it.

Kiemyster · 12-06-2007, 01:20 PM

meh. too early to say anything. thing is, i like the current 5er because of the ass of it... bangle butt

this looks to.... ehh. i dont know. not "cool" enough lol

nmulax · 12-06-2007, 03:24 PM

too early to really tell. though the quad exhaust does make you wonder if there's an //M engine in there.

Chicagobob · 12-06-2007, 06:55 PM

Those tail lights look kinda like a Ferrari F430's.

shragon · 12-07-2007, 06:21 PM

yea, way too early. looks very similar to the new 7 they're testing.

Year's_End · 12-08-2007, 03:05 AM

So much camo there's no point to these shots. The quads are the only hint of what we can expect...I find it funny how they choose the ugly ass 7 series (pre-facelift).

BoostedBMW · 12-08-2007, 11:47 AM

I'm not feeling the shape of the front center grille. It looks very M45-ish IMO, and I can't imagine that shape with kidneys in the middle of it.

remmib · 12-08-2007, 12:07 PM

Quad=M

Imola.ZHP · 12-10-2007, 03:49 PM

Those "camo" taillights are halarious and hidious at the same time...

Looks like "black altezza's" I have seen on some SRT-4's...

Indeed an M, as noted from a preious poster, quad exhaust and wider fenders give it away...

John · 05-03-2008, 04:35 PM

i was a big fan of the old 5 series fan. i didn't like it when it came out, but i really really like it now.

but this new rear not a fan. hopefully i'll change my mind when it gets unveiled

vincmo · 09-26-2008, 10:18 PM

woa...they're already testing the M5? That's fast!
