M6 front looks like an angry shark.

Refreshed 7 series looks better, but they didn't do enough.

2 series looks like a Scion tC on crack.

we havto remember that bangle was the one behind the previous generation of BMWs too, so hes not completely insane. The 7 looks better because of the old style grills and better tailights, I love the M6 and the 2 series is trash.

The M6 looks mean...definitely feelin' it the most out of all the newer bimmers that are coming out.

As for the facelift on the 7....what can I say, the rear now looks similar to the new ES330.

The 2 just makes me think, Aww...how "cute".

I saw a Tiburon when I saw the pic of the 220i.

M6 looks best

The 2 series - like bit said, a Scion or Kia

the 7 - misses the mark - I like the first 745 better

The only one I have interest in is the M6. The front of the 7 series looks better, but I actually prefer the butt pre-facelift. The 2 series is blah

The 6 is looking really sick. just read Car magazine's review on the new M5. it's sounding pretty insane. if the same engine is going to M6, which i'm assuming, then that car is really just going to be a F1 clone.

The 7 is aiite. I really like the rear of the car now. Front doesnt look to different, but still better.

M6 is really mean. I love it.

2 is garbage.

I dont want to sound like a chronic whiner here, but I really don't like the looks of any of them. The 7 looks too much like its recent ugly forerunner, the 2 has too high of a beltline, and the M6 is just too busy-looking all-around. In fact, the ONLY Chris Bangle design yet with that I personally could live with is the 1-series.....which we may not even get here in the U.S.

Besides the front and rear lights, what did they change on the 7 series?
