Interesting but we need an msport and better colours to judge it. Interior trim is very s class chrome - i prefer the piano black in A8 - the steering wheel too thick but the instrument panel is far better than the one in the sclass. The tail pipes are weird and I dont care much for the line ala x6 the finishes the side front and rear bumper. The headlights seem too big in these pics I was hoping they would look sleeker but then again these are not the best pics ever. Lets wait. I think the shoulder line on the current 7 is stronger and the interior is still no match for audi and merc.

Judging from these pics, pure disappointment . . . What is going on with BMW and their new design language ? Rear looks like a mix of 5gt and e65

I think I like it... can we get a rendering of this thing from a bit further back? Pix are too close.

Do owners of the current gen 7s black that chrome strip out on the back?

I can see where the E65 thought came in. Itll be better when we have more colors and an M Sport like said before.

Hmm. Have to say pretty disappointing.

I will caveat this by saying this is always the first reaction to the first, non-manufacturer full reveal shots. The shipping spacers which are giving it the AMC Eagle stance are not helping either.

But that back is a mess.

Wow, not the best seven. Looks kind of like an avalon

I'm not the focus group for this car so maybe that group will love it

Technically, this car better be a break-through (weight savings, engines, technology, etc.), because visually, it is a massive disappointment. That interior is horrendous.

I actually rather like it. Guess I'm the only one

surprised no one has mentioned ride height yet - I doubt it is production spec, but wow! those gaps are too much.

I'm not sure if I like that steering wheel, though

Excited to see m-sport

I've never been a 7 series guy myself but so far this looks disappointing.

Looks remarkably like the bmw lusso grand coupe concept, need better pics to really judge the design.
