O.K, you've shown us the pics, so what about the details? New engine? New design suspension? Safety innovations? Provide more info or at least a link! Thanks!

they typically use the older engines for a few years, so the new 3er's will use the m54s for the time being. . .

agree, they look like audi's

Bummer. They are losing their BMW character. The kidney grille's are not enough. Does anyone else think the new 5 series looks like a Camry, actually?

I've been a big BMW fan for years, but this new "flame surface" design or whatever its called just isnt agreeing with my stomach. Whats with those fugasi horn-rimmed corners??? I cant talk much though. Look at the current Civic and Accord sedan

The sedan version is the same picture as the other wagon it has just been photoshoped, i must say that it is very well done though. I think some of the wagon has been photoshoped as well. Where did you get these pictures?

Those pics don't look like something Jim McDowell took with a digital camera. They look an awful lot like press release photos by BMW, taken in Spain by a professional photographer on a location shoot. There certainly isn't any terrain in Zurich that quite looks like that desert mountain backround.

Anyway, Jim is a good guy. Say hello to him for me next time he stops by your house...my father is an old school buddy of his.
