Going to be a great looking car.

I'm still a bit worried that this won't look aggressive enough. Hopefully the uncovered front bumper, production style wheels and rear diffuser are enough to set it off.

Malbolge · 05-25-2010, 11:09 AM

look at those flared arches!!

positiveions · 05-25-2010, 11:20 AM

those are huge brakes; front and rear. This will have amazing stopping power.
I have to keep an eye on this one

mach330 · 05-25-2010, 12:39 PM

dayam that looks really good especially the front. i'm really curious on what the real mirrors will be like.

it's all relative...
compared to those small wheels they look huge...but I don't think it will get bigger brakes than the E60 M5

E92Alpine328i · 05-25-2010, 01:05 PM

can see the sideskirts are finally on. front and rear bumpers are on just need to uncover the lower half of the bumper. funny how they used stick on red reflectors to fool us

. cant wait to see the production wheels on this bad boy. and the mirrors of course.

Bimmerboy888 · 05-25-2010, 01:12 PM

Can't wait til all the camo comes off!

Nope.

Levi · 05-25-2010, 01:48 PM

So only mirrors left.

Evolution_GT · 05-25-2010, 02:03 PM

Looks boring here... hopefully there's some more aggressive looks that I'm missing under that camo.

Nah, they'll up the brakes from the e60 i'm sure (or at least i would hope), it wouldn't make sense to use previous gen brakes when you're generating more power and touting more performance.

Also those "small" wheels are possibly 19s but at least 18s... b/c 17s look tiny on this car. These wheels look similar in proportion to what style 287 wheels look on an e90.

kinan_sleiman2006 · 05-25-2010, 03:17 PM

Great..awesome..more performance ..great brakes

Pavel · 05-25-2010, 04:45 PM

Whats up with all the Chrome??
Chrome on the doorhandles of an M5.... cmon...

uhn2000 · 05-25-2010, 05:05 PM

It will be epic.. I am sure of it.

looks like the new 5 series. not special for an M.

Oulixes · 05-25-2010, 07:24 PM

Looks better and better - so far the car looks weighted towards style instead of aggressivity.

ase2dais · 05-25-2010, 07:25 PM

This will be an awesome machine!!! Im never been a fan of the current M5 but this series definitely will make me reconsider

just the front is lifted a tad bit to give it a more aggressive look. the rears stayed the same. ill do a comparison on photoshop later when i return.

bayerischeperformance · 05-25-2010, 08:05 PM

jmunro · 05-25-2010, 08:42 PM
