I really like the rear of that car!!!

cdheaven · 12-20-2005, 01:46 PM

i dont buy it.... it looks like a new 7 series with the 6 series headlights and rear end. which is probably close to what the new one will look like. but this is probably a photoshop type deal
thats what im guessing

Upstairs · 12-20-2005, 01:56 PM

I really like it...

Nikki · 12-20-2005, 01:58 PM

it's just a photoshop, but i like it.

Sho · 12-20-2005, 01:58 PM

It looks great.

Oz · 12-20-2005, 01:58 PM

I dig the look as well. I do like the current 7 exterior but really interested how the interior will turn out to be

jcoo085 · 12-20-2005, 02:16 PM

Anyone think the rear lights look a tad like the new Audi A6??

YV1 · 12-20-2005, 02:22 PM

I like it better than the actual model

Ed_330i · 12-20-2005, 02:23 PM

bah, i like our 7 better

ksfrogman · 12-20-2005, 03:30 PM

What is interesting about the photos is that the front end incorporates the split bumper design of the e90. The rear deck chamfered edge is similar to that of the e90 as well.

From a styling standpoint, I am glad that the e90 does not have the X3 tail lights. My impression of the X3 is that it's a small, entry level SUV that looks a bit cheap. Reminds me of my g/f's Honda CRV, which by the way is a very nice little SUV. I just would expect a little more luxury from BMW in their small SUV offering. When styling cues of the e90 begin to show in other models of the future, one gets the impression that the e90 is on the cutting edge of a new styling trend for BMW for which I am glad.

Two Thumbs Way Up!!

a3ndy · 12-20-2005, 05:22 PM

looking good. Much better than the current version

yujini · 12-20-2005, 05:26 PM

I like the current version better. probably the best looking 7 series ever.

Hunter399 · 12-20-2005, 06:17 PM

The new S-Class will replace my current e65 7. The new S is beautiful....

Ed_330i · 12-20-2005, 08:49 PM

the new S is a total rip off on the 7

KKilo1323 · 12-20-2005, 08:59 PM

What the interior? Everything else looks nothing like a 7....

Hunter399 · 12-20-2005, 09:20 PM

My dad is getting the new s550

Yeah I agree, it does look very much like the 7

E90-4life · 12-20-2005, 09:44 PM

this car wll have NOTHING on the new S-class. I viewed and sat in one for the very first time today, the car is siiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiick!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'd buy one if I had a spare hundred g's to drop on a car, w/ out question.

Intuition · 12-20-2005, 09:53 PM

Hmm... I thought that Bangle's argument for his new design movement was to steer away from same sausage different lengths?

BMW should try to be brave and become discreetly understated again.

I've liked alot of the new cars but the design repitition has now lost its appeal to me.

KKilo1323 · 12-20-2005, 09:55 PM

Been in both....inside ok maybe similar but out side.....see for yourself...
