First REAL Life Photos Of 2011 5-Series

Not bad looking at all, can't wait to see the M5 version of it.

 

meh. better than the old 5, not as good as the new 7

 

Looks like a dramatic improvement, IMHO.

 

Agreed, although I find that it looks a bit too similar to the 3-series.

One thing I've learned with modern BMW's, however, is to never judge them until seen in real life.

 

What is with those hideous rims? What has bmw done to good looking rims. They look as bad as some of those rovers and escalades with 22's on them.

 

Boring. Sterile. Derivative.

Another yawner from BMW.

I miss the E36, E34 and E38

 

fixed it for ya!

I do wonder why BMW is copying Lexus copying Mercedes...

 

+1, E30s are amazing. I want an E46 M3 so bad

 

my first car was an E30 325, great car. I'd love to have an E30 as a track day car.

 

The exterior looks great to me. I think BMW should do something about the interior already though, never liked it.

And no 535d this time?

 

This brings some hope to the future of BMW...but they still aren't where they need to be IMO. They'll sell a ton though.

 

another GROSS 5 series bimmer!

the e-39 was the last 5 series w/ and sense of style.

 

x2!

 

+1,000,000

The E39 5-series and E53 X5 were also gorgeous, but things have gone downhill. On the contrary, I like the X6, 5-series GT, and Z4, but those are by no means "core products" and it's sad the direction that the core models have gone.

By the way, this is one of the strangest-looking people I've ever seen. Is she made of plastic?!?!

hahahahaha, I thought the same thing....too much Botox?

 

I think it will look majestic on the road.

 

more like Bummer...

 

God, modern BMW design is horrible.

 

Too bad about that Euro requirement for the snout to be big and high.

 

Nice 3series

 

Huge improvement, although nowhere near the bar set by the E39.

 

I never understood peoples' fascination with the E39. The M5 was a looker, as was the 540i with the M-package, but you're seriously trying to tell me that this car looks nice?

Just my opinion.

I agree, a friend's mom has a silver 525 (or 528) with crap rims, I don't see the appeal.

 

Thank you!

The current 5 is so much better looking than the dated looking E39.

The same can be said of the E38 7. People talk about that car like it was a pinnacle of automotive design. IMO it looked dated even when they were the current generation, and it hasn't gotten better with age.
