And with the x-drive, it will definitely be the ultimate driving machine for those of us in the snow belt.</p> One more thing, the 550i/xi sounds amazing — nearly as powerful as an ///M5 not that long ago.

The front could use a little more aggressiveness but we’ll probably see that with the M5.

The nose seems a bit too squared off, but the rest of it does evoke a sport-oriented, fast look. Compared to the dreadfully restyled Mercedes E-Class, this is a dream come true. BMW ought to be able to significantly increase its market share in this segment with the new 5er. Better looking and surely better performing than the E-Class.</p> A very handsome car.

There are a lot of details here that seem really well put together, such as the low swooping scuttle which continues nicely to the low trunk. Overall, nice job. It's not styling that you are going to ache to own just to look at, but it's modern and contemporary without being over the top ridiculous.</p> <p>That said, can't wait to see what the M version looks like.</p> Very evolutionary styling.

That said, can’t wait to see what the M version looks like.
