Not sure if this is true or not, must lose a lot of money doing something like this.

As far as I know, there is a new 7 series BMW in production, also with different paint colours than before (as usual). Hahaha, we got a part in the shop the other day, and our painter said: "wtf is this paint code?" The 7 series has always been a huge boat, but also the ultimate in luxury and technology.

If I worked with BMW more, I'd be able to confirm, but from my knowledge, there is a new model of BMW coming out. I also hear that the M3 is changing, because that part that we got with the odd paint code, was a spoiler that had to be modified for a new M3 :confused:

Maybe? :dunno:

The new 7-series is UGLY. Bangle has mangled (hehe) all of the BMW's he's laid his hands on. I'm confident this trend will continue.

There is an addition to the 7 series lineup, the 760? which is the longer wheelbase version... the 3 series is also getting some minor facelifts (led brake ligths, new headlights, slight bumper redesign, etc). Hopefully the 7 series facelift will make the car look good once again! haha

I hate those rims. Car doesn't look that great, but better than the 7. I think the biggest problem with the 7 is the back, not the front.

For the 5 series I will take the E39's over that anyday!

Hell yeah. The E39 M5 is quite possibly the most perfect car ever.

Almost perfect... if only it had an SMG option, and oh, 100more HP. Then it'd be perfect.

The new M5 gets that, but the looks... there goes perfection.

eeeh...hopefully will grow on me, i liked the close up pics better, so prossibly looks awesome in real life...the signature bmw hoodline is too heavy and it doesnt look nearly as good as the E39, or the E34 even...unless the new 3 looks better or relative to E46, bmw style may go down the shitter, if it hasnt already...and finally, is it just me, or does it take alot of styling cues from an altezza? ie tail lights, headlight shape
