I drove the new 650i conv. during drive for team USA BMW event few week backs. It was 98 degrees outside in Houston, Texas summer heat with sun shinning like crazy. I was able to see this new styled NAV screen perfectly. Also, it looked great with nicely metallic chrome like polished outline and was much larger and nicer looking then my i-drive NAV screen. Looking at this and the 6er screen there is not much difference but the size.
Trust me it was not hard to see at all in the new 6er conv. Quote:

i love that extra shadow line on the top… can't wait to see what it really looks like… usually that would hint that new bmws may carry that extra shadow line when the 3 series comes out. Look at the new 5 and such after the e90. :-)
Then again, that was the bangle era? Anyway, i wish that 3Li would make it to the states. Better competition for g37/a4 as far as length and interior space. I know BMW/Merc/Audi are supposed to make small cars, but come on. Just a little bit more room please. Some may like the 3 design and not the 5 design, but get the 5 cuz of convenience. .. but i understand how it works. |

Partnership of Brilliance China and BMW is what made Bayerische Motoren Werke AG shine, not the EU nor the US markets. It is a natural evolution for them to develop a specific model according to their market research results that will sell aggressively there. The Chinese buyers of "Prized Horse" cars has yet to develop the sophisticated driving appetite like the rest of us, so a longer wheel based 3 or 5 series albeit the coveted exhilarating bimmer thrill is not a drawback. Besides a smoother riding longer wheel based chassis is probably less jarring and more amenable in traversing the rudimentary choppy Chinese roads. I doubt that these longer wheel based variants will ever be marketed in the US market. They are stop gap fix for a poor man's 7 series. These chassis probably got a ride like a refrigerator a la Lexus, which will make the rest of us the true bimmer addicts to barf ad nauseum.
