Viva La E39.

Come on e34 owners, dont deny that the E39 is God of 5-Series.

Actually, that distinction belongs to E34 owners.

bmw is going more with the future look. May the look will grow on us. THe problem is we have seen the current 5er so long that we don't want a change. Just my $.02

God help us. I saw the new 7 in person. It's just not a good looking car.

Whatever happened to a ballsy-looking car? The final respectable BMW's will be the early E46, E39, and E38. It's sad really, that they make an A6-esque car, with headlights reminiscent of a Celica. And the new 3-compact and Z3 with altezzas.

It all started when artists made futuristic reditions of what cars will look like in 50 years. They are always gross. So car makers, ie- Chris Bangle, try to make them look like that. Shitty. Why not follow the logical progression of an automobile, instead of such a drastic change? I am embarassed to see that as a BMW.

Oh wow, what an intelligent response. I guess we should just assume that anything newer is better, right?

The head lights look like wings, and they gave it a 3 series sorta look on the tail lights, except its not as good as the 3 series. Somethign wrong with the current BMW designers or what?

That is one fugly car. I am very affraid of what the new 3 series will look like when it comes out. E39 owners don't you feel special now. Man BMW is on crack they are trying to do way too much, but it is way too little. When I went to the dealership I even heard some old man clawning on the new 7.
