The M5 and M6 are 2 totally different cars. The 6 series is the coupe that BMW is bringing back after like 15 years or so. I think it looks much better then the 5 series, IMO:

You guys haven't really seen the whole car yet. I was watching motorweek last night and they had the new 530. It was sweet. The M5 won't come out 'till the 2005 year and it will have a V10 kicking out 530 hp. That will be one killer car.

So many know-it-alls in here that have proven time and time again to be wrong. Please, before you roll your eyes and open your mouth, look at the car more carefully.

The "plastic" on the bottom of the car is tape. It seems people here aren't familiar with how new cars are masked.

For those that say it's a plain old 5, the fenders are flared out a lot more. It's not just a regular 5 series.

Too many posts are made with this immature ranting attitude, and then they do not even know what they're talking about.

Agreed, I wasn't going to say anything, but now that you have opened it wide open, I'll add my .02. The car pictured was caught by a spy photog, it is a development mule, probably in the final production stages. The finished product will not have the black tape on the bottom body panels, no black wheels, or black exhaust. That being said, I STILL don't like the new 5 series' look. You can't tell me the new 6 series doesn't look 1000% better.

I'm glad that the bottom is masked in some way. Because if that "pimp looking pin striped suit wearing" car was production class then...

If the whole thing was one color it wouldn't look that bad at all. Black wheels = TunR stYle, but on a 70g car they look out of place.
