Very very nice. Even people who don't like it at first know that the design will grow on you at some time or another - like it has done with all BMW models of late that people have ever doubted! I like it from the off though :) M version should be interesting - I think it will really suit that big chin spoiler I'm reminded of the 3-series. In fact, this should have been a 2011 3-series. The new 5 Series sedan will launch with one eight-cylinder and three six-cylinder petrol engines as well as two six-cylinder diesels. Approximately three months later, the range will be rounded off by a direct injection four-cylinder turbodiesel.
Starting with the petrol units at the top of the range, the 550i TwinPower Turbo V8 makes 300 kW/407 hp, 535i twin turbo straight-six delivers 225 kW/306 hp, while the two straight-six engines with direct injection develop 190 kW/258 hp in the BMW 528i and, 150 kW/204 hp in the BMW 523i, respectively. For the diesels, the 530d produces 180 kW/245 hp and the 525d with 150 kW/204 hp. Lastly, the 520d and its four-cylinder makes 135 kW/184hp boasting an average fuel consumption figure in the EU5 test cycle at 5.2 litres/100 kilometres, the CO2 emission rating is 137 g/km (provisional figures with automatic transmission). BMW's new eight-speed automatic transmission is available as standard on all models (in Germany).

For the front suspension BMW is doing away with the MacPherson strut system that has been in use since 1965 and adopts a more sophisticated multi-link system already seen on the 7-Series F01. The rear suspension has been upgraded as well but remains the same in principle, also as a multi-link system. When equipped with a Sport Package, Adaptive Drive is added which includes Driving Dynamics Control, Dynamic Damping Control and Active Roll Stabilization. Optional Integral Active Steering will virtually extend or shorten the vehicle's wheelbase for improved stability at high speeds and enhanced agility at lower speeds.
I noticed they traded out the ugly tiangle tail lights for a more Kia look in the back!!! Not impressed. Looks average and cheaper than it is.What a joke.."The most beautiful BMW of our time" Might possibly be true..everything else is even uglier. This thing looks like a 3 series. Loved the older 5s much better. At least they had distinctive class.I just want an opinion on BMW interiors, I think they are sensational, in comparison to MB's mismash in the E Class, but is it a good idea that all new BMW interiors are identical, does it make the 7 now appear down market or the 5 upmarket? MB seems to have a different feel wiht each class but with some familiar details, thoughts anyone? Honestly, i like it! I'm sure that many of the ones who say the F10 is ugly will change their minds when'll see it live. Looks like a 3 series...looks like a 7 series. Of course, they are family. 2010 BMW 5-Series F10 Sedan Revealed : Revciews and Specification
