3To me it looks like the same sort of roofline as the old 7 but just a new face and new rear…less of a bangle butt

4@Jon Harper:
The artists impression is based on the old seven, but take a look at the roof line on the new one - it’s totally different. Much sleeker.
The rear-end… no idea!

5It looks a little sleeker, but overall it looks like a big 5-series (Which it is). I have to see the official pictures first….

11Certainly this car will be better than the one it replaces in every way. Nevertheless, Im equally certain it’ll have lots of design ‘issues’ as BMW, though claiming to be superior in ergonomics, proves time and again that they don’t really know anything. One really annoying issue with my ‘07 5 series, for example, has apparently not been addresses as evidenced by these pictures. In particular, I’m referring to the fact that the radio dial, ie, the iDrive, is on the console but the radio volume is on the dashboard. For people like myself who likes to change stations frequently this results in lots of unnecessary arm movement. You may consider this minor but these things all add up. I have a list of grievances with ergo on the 5 series and I have no confidence they’l ever be addressed since BMW have blinders on.
