2011 BMW 5 Series spotted on Autobahn

The folks over at Motor-Talk.de spotted the new 2011 BMW 5 Series on a German autobahn and ….it looks great. The road presence and design lines are impressive. and the overall exterior design stands out even more. While many have said, including us, that the new design can be classified as being safe, well, we might have been wrong. We see plenty of evolution, attractiveness and more important, sportiness in this new 5 Series, a design that will attract new buyers, both from the competitors, but also from existing 3 Series owners.

In some people’s opinion, the new F10 5 Series carries a lot of unique design aspects of the current 2010 3 and 7-Series models. The headlights and front end share a lot with the 5 GT and the 335i. The headlights are slightly modified over the 3-Series units and much smaller than the 5-Series GT, making the new F10 its own uniquely styled BMW. The eyebrow remains an important characteristic in the latest headlights’ design.


We expect more real life photos to surface in the next weeks, so stay tuned!

I am glad that it actually looks more like the 3 than the 7.

No two ways about it, BMW have absolutely nailed it with this design: sleek, barely restrained and contemporary without being over the top, this is BMW at its finest. This car just looks 'right' for a BMW: sexy, assertive and refined.

Hats off!

I want one. Nice evolution of the E39 that is well resolved. Thankfully it avoids the messy mix of cues that plagues the E series and creates a design that will look good for a long time.
