7 Series (F01) BMW 7er F01/F02 Picture Thread


The BMW F01 is the fifth-generation 7 Series, produced from 2008 to 2015. The model range consisted of standard length and long wheelbase ("Li" models) sedans. Model codes: F01 (short-wheelbase), F02 (long-wheelbase), F03 (high-security), and F04 (ActiveHybrid). Production: 2008–2015.
There is really very little, if anything at all, that I personally could criticize with regard to the F01 SWB design. Proportions are absolutely perfect, details are sharp-edged and precise. The front end IMHO fits the car.

Perhaps the taillamps could have been a bit more..ah..sportive. I prefer the taillamp graphics on the F10 5er and new 6 series-a bit shallower and wider, less boxy. It would give the rear end of the F01 a bit more visual width, methinks. Maybe something like applied on the 5er GT ? I like he taillamps on the 5er GT !

Otherwise, pretty darned perfect :usa7uh:.

Well, I think that a slightly change in the rearlights part located on the bootlid won´t do bad to the design and won´t be expensive, as they just have to change the bootlid.
 
I think you forget the most important change: the kidneys. I do believe the F01 LCI will feature a much sharper grille, which will mimic the F10 and F13 one.

Don't think the grille will change actually. But we'll see!!
 
The grille can get a bit toned down imo, i mean the current ultra large kidney grille is an either love it or hate it thing. Like the E65, now that they got the hype they wanted when they released the car, they can afford to tone it down a bit to get more sales out of it.

Yeah that's a good point actually. The only one that works so far...
 
Nah, Me, I like the grille just fine - gives the car presence as is appropriate with a car in this class;)
:t-cheers:
