Saw one today all shiny and new on the road. I had a good look at it. I don't like it. It looks too sculpted and and angled all over. It looks better in the pictures. Maybe it will grow on me but I remember first seeing the outgoing style and loving it at first sight.

Murph, that's ironic. Saw my first one locally a week or two ago and thought to myself that it looked better in the metal than it has in pix. Still can't deal with those eyebrows, though............

I'm sure that somebody will make color-keyed trim pieces to cover the corner of the headlamps (just like they already have for the 99-01 3-Series to make it look like the 02-04 models). Here is my crude "artist's" rendering of such a mod that I whipped up in Paint.

They're running an ad blitz on TV and in magazines, and I have mixed emotions. It's definitely not as in-your-face ugly as the new 7, but I still think it is less attractive overall than the current (I guess now the OLD) 5. The scowling front end is so mean-looking it's almost comical, while the back does have WRX or even TSX lines.
You know they scrambled back to the drawing boards, so I wonder how bad it would have been before the new 7 was soundly rejected by the marketplace...
