Re: Pics of the new M5

It's just as ugly as every other model they've introduced in the "new look." The last good looking car they have is soon to fall victim to "the look", the 3 Series.

2002/2003 was quite a fork in the road for BMW and Merc. Up until then, they were equals and you really couldn't go wrong either way. Bimmers were a little more of a driver's car and Merc a little nicer/fancier. Merc then began making badass daily drivers with 500hp, big brakes and handling (in both S/C and TT models). BMW on the other hand went to see how confusing the driver interface could be and then beat the shit out of every Series with the biggest ugly-stick known to man.

The new M5 is too little, way too late. And it's fucking ugly to boot.
