Most revealing F10 5-series photos yet (loses some camoflage)! 10/20/09

Seen here are the most revealing F10 5-series photos yet. The strip tease continues and this test car sports less camoflage than ever. She's shaping up to be a beauty folks!!

The first photo also shows a nice comparison to the frontend of the 5-series GT.

OMG it's such a Hot car!!

HermesRider · 10-20-2009, 09:11 PM

Is it just me, or does anyone else think this new 5er looks extremely feminine?

YYdoodle · 10-20-2009, 09:15 PM

Holy that is a beautiful front end!! Love how the kidney grills aren't as oversized as on the F01 7 series.

Such beautiful proportions everywhere.

How is it "HOT"?

I consider an Aston Martin HOT. This is just a basic everyday car. Not as polarizing as the E60.

just you... just you...

dayum i am stoked for this car

Boost Gomez · 10-20-2009, 09:21 PM

Seems pretty bland to me. Maybe my mind will change when I see the final reveal, but for now the new 5er is just boring.

vincmo · 10-20-2009, 09:30 PM

We got a winner. Looks amazing!

E9TOU · 10-20-2009, 09:33 PM

Looks flat faced, like the front got punched in.

Berduderunner · 10-20-2009, 09:33 PM

Ehh... Too early to tell looks-wise. And I thought the larger grill of the GT was going to carry over (I like it more).

All I know is that it will DEVASTATE the competition in the comparo's

Maybe thats just you, but I think this is pretty hot. There can be HOT cars that are not supremely expensive and have an interior room of a toadstool. IMHO I think the first DB9 was hot. After introducing the Vantage/ DBS and the 4 door coupe (YUK), its been over played and a little OTT

Your crazy if you think the Vantage and DBS are OTT. Two of most beautiful cars on the road, period.

I won't show my BMW fanboy colors, this car looks bland. It will not have the impact on design like the E60 did.

thesixsins · 10-20-2009, 09:55 PM

Nice design... but not nearly as different (exciting imo) as the e60's were.

The overall silhouette reminds me of a stretched and bigger e90 with a flat face. I do like that fact that the new 7, GT, and now 5er all look like they came from the same family of cars.

VBMW · 10-20-2009, 09:59 PM

Really like it... Can't Wait for an M Pk and of course M5 V10TT..if ever..

warzilla · 10-20-2009, 10:10 PM

Hmmm, not so impressed so far.

The aston range does not do anything for me... see them where i live all the time. Have seen a wierd yellow Vantage in my neighborood and almost threw up. Give me a scarlet ferrari anyday.

BMW BRAD · 10-20-2009, 10:56 PM

I think I'll reserve my final opinion once I see it in person. I dont think it's THAT bad....... Imagine it with an aero kit or in M5 guise......

Mii · 10-20-2009, 11:02 PM

Finally the F10 headlight shape is fully revealed with a blend of elongated 1er corner light.

Refujeet · 10-20-2009, 11:06 PM

Is it bad that I actually like the new 5er?

For the last 8 years, I haven't liked a new BMW at first sight. However, every model that I didn't like has grown on me and turned out to be a very appealing car...I ended up buying the e60 and the e92 because I thought they were gorgeous, despite hating their designs at first and liking the older generation when I first saw the new cars released.

Anyone else experience this?

alfredwhite · 10-20-2009, 11:27 PM

could have been more masculine.. they make the car look more pure with every new model despite more detailed which we don`t even notice at first sight.. but one thing i can be sure off would be to drive this definitely would be fascinating...
and this surely looks better than the new E Class..
