hahaha There is no such thing as a perfect car, like it's no such thing as a perfect girlfriend.

Is everyone serious! This car looks pretty much exactly the same as the new 7 series, the design behind this car is the look of a person running flat out into a brick wall pushing there nose into there forhead exposing the nostrals. No wonder the head designer quit, he had just unleashed metal in the shape of pour filth.

Finally, the first real BMW since the last 5-series ended production in 2003...
Beautiful. Imagine the M!!!!

Ironically, it doesn't happen to be a real BMW, but a photoshop rendering.

There are a lot of things that are perfect. For me any BMW is a perfect car!!!

That's a keeper!! Great evolution in design, Im starting to like the new crop of Bimmers, the new 7, Z4... it's going somewhere

This does look awesome. Sadly, the production car will have the same front end as that ghastly 5-series GT. They're almost identical, I know, but this one's headlights have more character. And bimmers have always been about the headlights.

man i must stop going to pubs gassed with 'grass' - is this car grinning at me?

I like the current (e60) more but i think that this could work, not a great fan at the moment but if BMW build a car looking like this it will grow on me (abit like all BMW design eg. X6)

Great rendering, love the design. Huge fan of the E60, but this looks even better, if it's close to what BMW will actually produce.
I wonder if major manufacturers with cash to burn like BMW and MB look at these kind of renderings during the design of a new car?

I rather doubt it as the actual car is already designed. Anyway a nice rendering, 5 GT is waaaaaaaay worse.

Nice??? Surely some mistake - a hideous 'face' to see looming up in your rear view mirror. It's hard to see how BMW could make it's drivers any less popular with other road users but this could well do it.
Q. What is the difference between a porcupine and a BMW?
A. A porcupine has pricks on the outside!

ROFL ... your name gives more than a slight hint towards your bias ... current MB designs are so NOT stylish IMHO ... anyway I really like this rendering, for me the face has the perfect hint of aggression that sits well with the BMW brand name

nope, that title goes to the new Mercedes E Class, uglier than anything we've seen in the premium segment for the last 15 years probably

8-speed automatic gearbox... Lexus has made it available in 2007...
March 11, 2009 8:19 am
BMW are the best, by far!
I can't wait to see what this looks like!
March 11, 2009 9:23 am
I like it, i think this will make me move from mercedesbenz, If the new 5-series looks like that, i think i will wait for this!

no !!! The Serie 5 GT have a different front !!
The 5 GT is the same opposant than the X6 with the X5.
WCF post the front bump of the 5 Series last time...
This render is 90% of the next generation of 5 series

"The 5 GT is the same opposant than the X6 with the X5. "
Any chance of a translation of this into English?

The bonnet has one too many "character lines" in it for my taste. Perhaps VanHooeydonk will remove the 3-series like lines running from the roundel and smooth things out a bit.
