I still can't make myself like those rear taillights... It looks like BMW bought them all off of Subaru, where they were rejected for use on the Impreza. Other than that, of course, I have no complaints. Hell, its an M5! And at that, even more of a technological tour de force than the previous generation.

I couldn´t agreed more with that terrible looking lights! How can BMW do something so strange after all, I am still in Love with the look's of the current 5 series..... classy and yet agressive due to the Front lights impressive aspect.....overall looking Great!!

maybe they r gonna do something different, like use diff wheels for the front and back, like on the test car

motorhead

now if they use different wheels the car will look like a bufallos ass and ya the back lights may look like its been smashed up but have you seen the front lights - they are stunning - especially the lenses - they make you go mad sometimes

If this thing would show up in my rear mirror, I would be reminded of the Pontiac Grand Prix, that I rented two years ago in the USA.

Let Me help with that.

Perouda is a cheapo brand from Malaysia that sells rebadged Daihatsu to unsuspecting Malaysians and Europeans, these cars have no place being mentioned in UltimateCarPage.com..... The Scanned (Albeit Poorly) Image is of a Perouda Kenari.

Well I had to experience the American way of driving (lazy, lazy, boring, boring) and I thought to do it best in an American car. (lazy,lazy, boring,boring), besides have you ever considered the additional insurance premiums on the M5 (if that would have been available)

It's Ok, i'm sorry i actively searched it out.....

And as for motorheads comments, i made no mention of Proton, simply because i knew that, so no need to take offence, but i do hate Budgetmobiles....

IBrake4Rainbows

I Have to say i agree with Arcanjo on this one.

I like the front, the lights are quite decent and i think it creates something of a front prescence, but why, oh why, does he still insist on having a bloody taxi butt? i know that if the car hits the spots dead on then it immediately begins to date, but in all serious, will this catch on? Let us hope not.

motorhead

06-14-2003, 03:10 AM

the back has some doubts but over all the car looks way better than the seven series(although its not ugly) i have to say

Nash

06-14-2003, 03:20 AM

Looks are subjective.

I happen to love Bangle's styles, because they're different.

Though, noone can argue with the 500hp V10.

IBrake4Rainbows

Indeed the styling of Renault's Patrick Le-Quement (Right spelling for you Motorhead) and the.. erm..... erm.... difference of Bangle styling certainly brings a duller edge to other cars around it. but no one can argue with classic beauty over trashy design. One good theory i recently read was theat if a car design is spot on form when it is built, it will date really quickly, but if it isn't so well recieved reight form the start things can only get better. Bangle sure hopes so, his contract is up for renewal soon......

but still, i don;t like his design

Who, Bangle or Le Quement? Bangle i would agree with, but i reallly like Le-Quements style...

Le-Quements design's r nicer than bangle's

motorhead

06-17-2003, 11:32 PM

they both have totally different design minds - bangle takes the slightly just slightly the conservative path compared to quiment's design because look at the talisman - megane 2 - vel santis and the one and only avantime they tend to approach the MPV kind of design with a lot of style but none of those are MPVS actually - they have very high seating positions with very very flamboyant backsides but they i have to say are never ever ugly - bangles designs are not ugly also but if you are a bit small minded and if you are a bmw purist there maybe a problem but it will be solved when you get use to it and you see the real beauty in modern designing

motormaniac

06-19-2003, 02:18 AM

i am waiting to look at these cars in the metal

however, really

i am a bmw enthuisast. but

i can't really agree with bangle's design's

the z5 looks good however

motorhead

06-19-2003, 10:17 AM

why can't you agree with his designs - actually you should keep in mind he has only designed one car so far - the z4 - he only supervised the rest - not designed it - the e65 seven was done by some spanish or some other country men

motormaniac

06-19-2003, 07:38 PM

the Z4 is very nice

the 7 series is also very nice

the new 5 sucks

motorhead

06-20-2003, 09:07 AM

i think the new 5 is better than the seven
