What the new 7 SHOULD have looked like...

[Nightmage82]

if like me you hate the e60, check out these pictures, i didn't draw it but they look sweet, the only differences are the lights really, the rest is stock, and u can see how much better it looks! oh well

EDIT: sorry i meant the e65 (the new 7 series), the e60 is going to be the new 5 series, though more ugly...

it looks very sweet

Whoa! E39 lights on the E65! Maybe now they'll steal forty buyers from Lexus! Do I need to repeat the '20% sales boost' statistic?

fair enough but that is a slightly pointless viewpoint. i don't care if a smart could outhandle an F1 car, i still wouldn't get one cause its for lamers and gays

a caterham super 7 could out accelerate a lambo but thats not the point, you want something thats as good to look at as it is to drive.

good point i do understand where your coming from but for me personaly the appearence of the car is only half the story. i think for this particular car it very much comes down to personal taste, you either love it or hate it. and i love it 👍

That's called posing, and I'll have none of it.

Why does everybody care what everything looks like? I'm telling you - when it's that good, who cares?

The 7 is amazing. One of the most luxurious cars you'll see on the road. And the 03 has a v12 option, this machine can out perform many "sporty" cars while being a +4,000lb luxury car.

the 'v12 option' has been available for many years. since the 80's or even earlier. no one questions its performance or abilities, im sure they are legendary, but when buying a non-asian car, you want something that looks good!

I am more worried bout the 5 series (e60) than the 7 series, that car looks dodgy.

indeed, lets hope it doesn't take several decades for them to get their style back like it did for mercedes benz (mid 70's to late 99 when the new s class came in was a dark time for mb, but now they have smashing cars once again )

fat ass car

760iL, mmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

You guys act like its just hideous. The lights really aren't that big of a difference, and even if you don't like them its only a small part of the car in general. It's still in my opinion a good looking car, with the lights how they are or not. I like the look, yes, but the fact is that if you are buying a car in that market and have driven that thing (which apparently is a joy to drive), the tail lights aren't that big of an issue.

IMHO the new 7th looks very nice. Saw one black with full Hamann body kit ant nice Hartge 20's .... It looked VERY beautiful. In fact I think E65 is the best looking luxury car now in production ...

if i disagree with someone i tend not to argue with them but i can't let this one go. i will accept that some people don't hate or even 'like' the look of the new 7. but best looking luxury sedan? no way. just look at mercedes benz. e55 nuff said.

just out of interest did the people who like the new 7, also like the old 7? cause i thought it was the most beautiful bmw at the time when it was out. with some m5 alloys it looked the bomb. now its a bit dated i think the 5 series at that time, the e39 was the best looking bmw (of all time).

When I said "luxury car" I meant the highest class. E55 is considered as lower class car than E65 and benz S-class is from the same segment as the new 7th... so IMHO
e55 vs m5
S-class vs E65 and I think E65 is way better looking now.

i understand, i only consider the s55 to be slightly worse looking than the e55, it is still leaps and bounds ahead of the e65. i totally love the current s-class.
