Why don't you buy a 911 or Ferrari dad? I don't want people to notice it. Could have gotten one no issue. |

This LCI will come out for 2021 model year. Pre-LCI G30 will have 4 model years (2017-2020) Pre-LCI F90 will have 3 model years (2018-2020) Expect the 5-Series LCIs to last through 2023 (three model years) followed by an all-new 5-Series for 2024.

Time heals all wounds and although I definitely think these new larger kidney's are a bit comical as long as they keep selling it will keep down sliding to the G30 and G20. I mean look at Lexus' predator grille. That was probably one of the most laughable things to come out of a car grille in the last 20 years but it now literally sells on every single model. Eventually it will grow on you even if it is ugly.

![]() Also, I think the LCI is going to look awesome. From what I can tell, it looks like the grilles will be of similar shape and proportion to those found on the G20 3-series and not the 7er LCI.

I do hope that the LCI 5er’s grilles are similar to the G20 3er’s, as that would keep the car modest. I’m also really hoping that the 5er receives the new X5’s Laser Headlights because that would be pretty slick. Last edited by ZaGooser; 07-17-2019 at 12:23 AM.. Reason: Adding more |

What do mean by dated?
Styling is obviously subjective but in terms of technology it's up there I don't think having a map in the instrument cluster is the best place (like Audi) from an wrgernomic point of view. It might have the wow factor but where are your eyes on the road when you are looking detailed info in the cluster? HUD is the place for any info like that. I think the 5 is pretty much gimmick free ( bar gesture control) and I think it's arguably conservative look will age less than others potentially. Anything that is fashionably now is bound to date it. |

Can't wait to get my 540xi on Friday and out of my Q50 RS. Talk about a dated interior and tech. 👎🏻

I really liked my Q50 RS, including the engine sound pouring out of the (aftermarket) Fast Intentions cat-back free flowing exhaust, and if it was not for the M550 power/drivetrain, I would have still owned the Red Sport. |
