The 6 looks 100 times better then the 5. At least 6 is a Porche lookalike and not a hundai.

The X3 doesn't look much smaller then the X5. Weird.

All I can say is that I pray the new 3 won't be so ugly. I think we have to remember that although the 6 looks better than the 5, it still is way under par from what I would expect from BMW as far as styling. Engine, performance, handling, and interior should all be amazing still, but I am once again dissapointed by BMW.

Out of all the new Bangle beemers - Z4, 5, 6, 7 series, I think the 7 looks the best by far. All BMW has left now is the 3 series and M3, the last good looking model that will soon be ruined by Bangle.

Very sad what BMW is doing, i used to be a big fan of their cars.

I do like the new 645. Nice car, now the 5 series looks like a streched KIA.

WHen I saw the rear of the 645 I immediately thought the new body style Tiburon's. A few people in the area have them and the tails and lights are almost exactly placed in the same slots.
