yeh i understand that the car does NOT look all that great in the picture, but in real life it does look pretty "unique" i'd say.. not as classy as the previous 5s but after you drive it you will like how it drives though....as for the looks, it s got the futuristic look to it though
just my thoughts =)

Chris Bangle's designs are a love or hate relationship. The new 7 has grown on me somewhat.

Growing on you? Then what is it? Love or hate? Haha contradict much....? Just playing with you, but yeah nice write up and fun looking video. Gotta try that sometime with the next rental.

To me there is a difference between the 7 and the 5 series.

The new 7can look real nice with just the right wheels. I saw one recently on the street with 20in mesh wheels with nice lip and the car looked NICE

The new 5 still looks WEIRD even if u put nice rims and a bodykit on it. The headlights and taillights ruin the whole car.
