A true story from a few years ago. In a parking lot from 100 feet I saw the distinctive tush of a new silver sedan. My first impression was that they are taking a new direction, sportier but still an improvement over previous styling (for geezers only). Then I got closer and saw the ID badge, and realized I was not looking at a Toyota Avalon but the new 530i. My thoughts changed to.....what have they done!!!???
The E39 was a hard act to follow, as I felt that design with the Sport Package to be the perfect large sedan. But regardless, the board went with Bangle and flame surfacing, and must have felt the need for a change in direction. While the newer styling does not suit most of us in this forum, there are plenty on the road in these parts (SLO/Santa Maria). The question is which way they go from here, as there is too much similarity with Asian manufacturers at this point.

For Bangle the car is a combo of romance and sex appeal. I'd love to know what makes his bloomers tight. Well, maybe I don't. No wonder his designs have elicited hoots of derision and scorn. The car looks like a high end Scion mated with a stretch Tiburon. As romantic and sexy as a chamber pot.

they obviously have no clue what the true CS heritage is - 4 doors? Can you believe that grille?
