Not surprised it looks like this...not liking how it looks EXACTLY like the 5 series, but I'm sure it will grow on me when it comes time tonged one lol

It just looks like more of the same to me. If it were not any bigger or heavier than the previous car, I might be excited.

Hummm...can't say it's great from these angles, doesn't look "exciting" to me...but can't say it's ugly either.
Things I notice are the hood and rear. The rear deck is so short and angled such that the car almost looks like a hatchback to me but can't say for sure until we see a true profile shot. The hood could also be a problem...looks quite a bit like a Lexus IS-F, which, IMHO isn't a good thing. Again, hard to tell from these angles. I'm cautiously optimistic but much more interested in the 4-series.

@ Scott26
one more question, will the F30 have the Alcantara/Leather combination as an option for M-Sport package? that would be perfect, as I had that in one car and it was just awesome... and I know that the new 6er has that, so please say "yes" |

Agreed... overall looks good, better than the f10. Main concern is the wheelbase - looks kinda long, would negatively affect the handling.... hope it isn't too much bigger

Looks definitely like an evolutionary design.
I'm guessing the average person wouldn't be able to tell a e90 from an f30 without being close. Wonder if f32 will follow the same idea. I'm only saying this because I have a e92 |

As a few already mentioned here. My realistic review will arrive after seeing and driving the new F-30. These raw photos aren't pushing me towards a dealer to place an order for November so who knows if my review will ever happen. I'm not sold on the f-30. Especially a tri-turbo M3!

You do realise that the original photographer is in a building, possibly an office shooting a birds-eye view of the F30 - That is why it looks longer and wider . By now I thought people would understand perspectives when viewed from great height? |
