This past weekend I saw the next 5 series in Austria on a test drive around Lake Plansee. No, I didn't get a pic even though I had my camera in my hand! It was basically un-camouflaged othen than black tape on the seams and over the roundels. It looked OK but quite a bit different than the E60, more like the E39 and older with separated round headlights. It was painted that weird sepang brown color that was available on the M5 for awhile. It was being trailed by a new black 7 series and moving at a pretty good clip! Supprisingly enough this is the same road/location that I spotted the latest version of the M3 over 18 mos ago. I would be surprised that some pics don't show up soon.

You had a camera....in your hand...with a chance to snap a photo of a car 90% of the people on here would love to see....
and you took no photo...you should be ashamed...

The few pics I've seen... I don't care for the apparent style (recognizing it may change a bunch before 2010). I'm glad I have the 2008.Cal

Sorry about the no pic thing, I would've loved to have one of the car as well but I had been facing the opposite direction taking pics of my wife and the lake, heard a car moving fast, turned around just as the car(s) swept by. My wife will back my claims up, just no pic.... The next time I'm up in this area I'll be sure to be a bit more aware of the cars going past, BMW seems to use the area for testing. The next 5 will look very different than the current model, which I'm a bit disappointed about as I like the current 5.
