Just for fun ...

Way to early to tell... they almost like identical with all the cladding... obviously there is a huge difference but still To early to have any real idea

My thoughts are the same. While we can guess the shape, there isn't much else to really vote for.

 

[CorpusCallosum]

I see you made it which protype.... ummmmm thats difficult to decide

The 5 series looks extremely heavily covered but its profile looks very sporty and clean whereas the E class side profile looks abit weird to me... way to early but going by the protypes I will vote for the 5 series

 

[Choleric]

I'll take the one with all the black stuff on it!

 

[Zafiro]

they both look like crap-

 

[LaArtist]

im voting for the one with least camo..as it reveals more..

 

[PanterroR]

LMFAO! Funniest poll that i remember!

Oh and of course, i'm 100% with Andreas! Well said, buddy!

 

[Sunny]

As well have a vote for who makes the worst plastic cladding.

 

[cawimmer430]

You're kidding, right, Eni?

Oh well...voted for the....

 

[EnI]

You're kidding, right, Eni?

Of course I am.

Isn't this one lovely poll?

But seriously ... I just wanted to point out the difference between the two cars. It's evident they will differ much more than the current cars do. MB more classic elegant (going back to more rectangular shapes), BMW more sporty (wedgy shape, coupeish stance).

Like I said before: 5er going more coupe way, while E-class & A6 are not: due not to overlap with CLS & upcoming A7. 5er has no such issue, since there's no 4dr coupe based on 5er platform. 8er will be much bigger & more expensive: positioned above 7er.

Therefore 5er is moving away from E-class & A6, coming closer to Jaguar XF (and according to rumors new Infiniti M & Lexus GS are going the same way as well).

@klier: I'll give you an answer regarding 5er vs XF in the 2010 5er thread. Please wait.

With this poll you can clearly see who the real fanatics are

 

[Centurion]

The bimmer looks a bit more phat and round like the Jaguar XF.

My exact thaught

Therefore 5er is moving away from E-class & A6, coming closer to Jaguar XF (and according to rumors new Infiniti M & Lexus GS are going the same way as well).

The GS is already built like a loaf, will it be more like a tea cake?

I wanted to vote.
But I can't.

How the hell could I recognize the Beemer from the Merc under this camo, and without the logo on the grille?

 

[coolraoul]

Okay, I got it.
The one with less camo is the Beemer, it has a double-kidney grille.
And the other, withi one single chromed grille, is the Mercedes. Funny, the Mercedes has a fake e65 rear .

I tought the E-Class was supposed to hit the market before the 5er, why does it has more camo on it?

(J/K of course.)
