Well, speaking as a former 7-series owner, it looks like they've totally ruined it this time.

It looks like they just ripped off the new Infinity G35 sedan. Totally japanese, and butt ugly.

the tail lights look like the Lexus LS lights??? the design of the newer generation 5 and 7 series BMW's has been a real disappointed.

BMW design has slowly went down the toilet! One new crappy design after another! Used to love bimmers. Best car they have out is the M6. Hope benz doesn't go down that road! If they do, my next ride is an Audi RS5 to come out in 2010!

The new E class looks much more appealing than the 5 series and hell I love my dads 2008 S65. What a phenomenal machine. Best money I ever spent for him.

I do miss my 2006 750li since it was the perfect car at the time. It looked sporty, elegant, and clean all at the same time.
