5 Series (G60) [Spy Shots] BMW G60 5 Series LCI

[SCOTT27]

Much more realistic render. This instagram page has the best renders, and almost %90 of the time they are fully correct.
Looks lovely with the yellow too.

I can dig!

Oh yeah. I forgot about the outlander EV. I see it every now and then.

Mitsubishi in the eighties were known as the “Japanese BMW” They certainly had some interesting cars at the time. Non-existent today sadly.

I believe the rear bumper will also change.

And, an extremely respected broadcaster in the UK, Alan Partridge, and his brief aquaintance, Dan, refers to Lexus as the "Japanese Mercedes".

9-months ago, the xDrive versions of the M3/M4 went from 510hp to 530hp.

LOL, ok. So there's precedent. My memory is clearly starting to fail on me.

I forgot that brand existed. Don't think I've heard a person on the street mention it for almost 15 years.

They're coming back as rebadged Renault's here in Europe:

The Renault-Mitsubishi-Nissan strategic alliance

Very sad and pathetic, yes.

Wasn’t it Honda that was called the Japanese BMW?

The renderings by Kolesa.Ru are way more realistic.

You already told us, Klier...

The Japanese Rover.

lol 90% and fully correct is very debatable.

That looks really good.

Transformational FL. The current BMW design is simply broken. The 5er front end looks terrible. And this simply fixes it. Makes it look like a classic/retro BMW.

This is the way to go.

A modern version of the E12. They should also put the thinner kidney in the middle for a complete retro experience.

True. Let’s correct and say they are correct most of the time.

 

[SCOTT27]

It kind of makes sense as the current X5 is similar to the new 5/i5 and the LCI 5/i5 will be similar to the next generation X5/iX5.
I wonder if the X-Shaped light bars on the new X5 will migrate to all other X vehicles for further individuality?

 

[Tuffode]

It kind of makes sense as the current X5 is similar to the new 5/i5

Is it though? I can't find any similarities. Different front end headlights/grill, totally different side profile sculpting, and the rear I also don't see any similarities.

Fully 100% agreed.

very Mitsubitshi

Is this the 5 series you were thinking of?

I don't think the Neue Klasse front gels well with the weird verticle doors of the G60 although it does look better than the fugly front of the pre LCI.
