5 Series (G30) BMW 5 Series (G30/31/32) Spy Pics & Info Discussion

[bmwblog]

Are we still talking about the unveil and show launch? We've said over a month ago, Oct 13 and Detroit. Test drives in November.

The car has been already shown at several VIP events around the world, including the US. They are using the same playbook as the 7 Series. Those VIP events will continue even after the Internet unveil.

We will also see the car in the new BMW Film.

Anything else?

Do you have any idea on when they will start taking orders ?

 

[SCOTT27]

Maybe I'm wrong but at the preview, bmw's man told that would be in Paris.

There will be a National launch preview within the BMW showroom at Georges V in Paris. Its not the global launch though if that is what you meant?

Last we heard was Spring 2017, but can't say 100%. Would rather not speculate.

Each country has their own schedule, so again, can't speculate. Most will start in early 2017, but in the next few weeks, your local dealership will know more than the press, since they will start seeing production slots in the system.

Hi everyone,

Been lurking here from Denmark the past couple of months and really appreciate alle the great discussion and info you all come up with.

By chance i stumbled upon this today from a random google search - can it really be a real picture of a G30? Anyway - judge for yourselves. I don't know how credible it is.

This is a G11, no?

For comparison...

 

[Serpens]

I literally cannot believe people are not realizing that's a 7-series.

 

[tomazino]

I don`t believe that you need more than 1 sec. to look at pic. and see that it is not 5 series. But, if so, just go on option "search google for image" and you will find this:

or this:

Look, it seems that g30 leaked 133 days ago:

Brian, are you a newbie to the automotive world ?

 

[Cabasse0]

Hey slow down cow-boys

 

[Brian]

Well, I wasn't sure either. I believe i made that clear in my post?

But anyway - tomazino cleared it up quickly that it surely isnt!

Newbie in the automotive world? No. New to BMW? Yes. Automotive fanatic? No. Do I think the 7 and 5 look very much alike? Yes.
