F10

[Roundal]

I popped into Auto Atlantic this morning to buy some parts and I must tell you...........I have fallen in love with the F10!

Such a beautiful looking car. I want one one day!

Funny thing about that car is, when I saw it in pics it looked hotter that hell, but when I saw it in person for the first time I was not impressed, to be honest, there was just something about it that I can't quite put my finger on that bothers me about it, but it is growing on me, albeit slowly, but I think this is just me, must be some kind of brain-problem or something

:ttiuwp: Always wanted to use that one...

 

[Sankekur]

Pic? of what? my brain problem?

How's this?

 

[Roundal]

I think it is prettier than the E60, but then that might just be me!

No doubt. A million times prettier!

The F10 is far better looking, then the E60 and the driver angled dash is back. But I have to admit the first time I saw it, I thought it was a audi! Until I noticed the badge.

It has also got the traditional door panels back too. I thought the E60 door panels were so ugly IMHO!

And the instrument cluster, is based on the older design... With some cool tech behind it. the whole cluster is basically an LCD Screen With actual gauge needles. Its good to see BMW going back too its roots, It would be great to see the 3er on a diet and brought back to what it once was.... Hoping for too much


This is an example from the 7er, slighty different from the 5er

I love the F10 :thumbsup: on the road the car is beautiful, now just imagine when they bring out the sportspack on it :drool:

Must say when i saw it I was sad the designers went for something so bland. Compare it from the jump from the E39 to the E60. Looked just like an oversized 3 series...

Saw one in traffic today, wasn't even a 6 cylinder variant (I think). It looked awesome... I want one too! :drool:

The bangle butt... you either love it or hate it, E60 FTW

I have to say though I love the F10....

2 things though, for a 5, its too big, its the same size as an E65, so in my view it should of been a bit shorter, and the second is idiotic design of the i-drive button, if you got your hand on the gearlever, your elbow hits it....

But those lines are just out of the world

 

[Roundal]

You think we will see a manual transmission eventually?

 

[Sankekur]

Probably not, as far as I know you will only get it in the 8-spd auto (I think) not sure about the M5 hopefully that will come in a proper manual.

According to reports, the ///M5 will be getting a 7-speed DCT box...:excited:
