Some weight comparison with the F30 3 Series!

540i: 1670kg or 3682lbs. 340i: 1615kg or 3560lbs Difference: 55kg or 121lbs.

520d: 1630kg or 3594lbs. 320d: 1505kg or 3317lbs Difference: 125kg or 276lbs.

530i: 1615kg or 3560lbs. 330i: 1570kg or 3461lbs. Difference: 45kg or 99lbs.

540i XDrive: 1735kg or 3825lbs. 330i Xdrive: 1690kg or 3725lbs. Difference: 45kg or 99lbs.

For a car that is 30.3 cm longer (12 inches) and 16.5cm longer wheelbase (6.5 inches) than the 3 series, this is pretty impressive!

The 530d X drive is quite impressive too with a 0-100kmh in 5.4 secs and combined gas mileage below 6l/100km

PackPride85 · 10-13-2016, 05:55 AM

iDrive 6.0? Any more info on that?

spuntyb · 10-13-2016, 06:07 AM

...zzzzzzzzzzz...

The M5 will be interesting though

ArchJR · 10-13-2016, 06:31 AM

The order guides show ACC as an option as part of Driver Assistance Plus or Driver Assistance Plus II, but the release above has it as standard. I hope it is standard, as that is only item among the electronic nanny option packages that I care for.

If this was E39 replacement, it should be shorter, i6 (no i4t) and more boxy/smaller.

My F10 was longer than my E70 X5. I'm surprised that the G30 is even longer than the F10. Beautiful car nonetheless. I like how they used the new X6 design language (which I love, and own currently)on it.

Frankrizzz · 10-13-2016, 07:14 AM

Any word on the power and sound kit for the 540i?

cncmastr · 10-13-2016, 07:15 AM

Can't wait to see the touring version.

ron_jeremy · 10-13-2016, 07:31 AM

Very sleek and elegant. It's going to be a classic, what a relief, the 5 is what it's supposed to be. Have a meeting with this on the 18'th, can wait to see it in the flesh.

adc · 10-13-2016, 07:34 AM

I find the design too derivative, they didn't move it forward enough. That's both inside and out. And why copy the 7 series hockey stick thing, it's pointless.

Love the standard options though, very well equipped.

x5mannn · 10-13-2016, 07:42 AM

Can you build one yet in US? When I check the BMW site it only shows the 2016.

SeG9n7Rf58pagQt3 · 10-13-2016, 07:46 AM

RIP F10 never forgetti.

I didn't expect they will top out F10, and i was right

IMHO this is step in wrong direction.

dantm3 · 10-13-2016, 07:47 AM

Beautiful! Wife says it looks like a tsx from the rear

Zeroblade · 10-13-2016, 07:48 AM

Wait, No Carbon core?

M5 exclusive for the additional weight reduction?

Bahn360Photo · 10-13-2016, 07:52 AM

where are M550i specs?

damnitBobby · 10-13-2016, 07:54 AM

Makes the outgoing 5 series look dated. I think the design looks good.

It sucks the 550i will only be available in AWD though. That's a deal breaker for me.

Sorry but thats not even close.

BimmerGuyFL78 · 10-13-2016, 08:30 AM

Doesn't it seem like BMW is going backwards in styling. Think of this. The F10 I had looks a lot like a Modern E39. The new G30 looks a lot like the model before the E39, the E34. From the rear and design to the front end how the headlights context to the grill like the E34 did. ?
