Holy Sh*#$@&^ttt...This car is stunning!!!
This is bad news written all over it for E Class and A6. They need to start releasing their next Gen 'yesterday' if they want to be up on the surface......otherwise, it's game over for them.
I gotta ditch my X1 now...and get me one of these!!! lol

What he said ^.

To my eyes there's something that says "classic BMW" in this design. Yes, it is an evolution of the existing 5-Series, and that's exactly what I was hoping for. I cannot wait to get in the queue for a 540.

With the magnificent 8 auto, why would you ever want a manual? In Europe, only the 520d and 530i will have manual. Here are no manual buyers for anything higher up the scale.
You do realize there are cars 10x faster than a 520i, 530i, or even an M5, correct? If you wanted the fastest car ever the last thing you'd buy is a 5 series.

Did anyone notice the temp gauge shows water temperature in G30 instead of engine oil temperature in any other recent BMW? This sucks IMO as you don't know exactly when the engine is ready for some spirited driving as oil takes much longer to get up to temp than water...
