I think it looks good. But like the other new models, I'm sure they're even better in person. I wonder how much the dimensions have been increased.
And the new 6cyl engine I've read so much about. They've got to be the worlds most advanced engine available to us common folk:new 6cyl engines
A Bimmer Nut for sure: '04 530im (current daily driver), '97 m3, '98 323is, '99 Z3, '01 740iL, '06 330cicm zhp, '02 R1150R, '69 r60, Owner/Operator of www.Bimmer.info and www.BimmerNut.com
And I still maintain: '90 535im (sold to daughters best friend, one of my favorite bimmers), '92 525im (daughters other best friend now drives this one).

Did some math, Ed
The last page of the brochure has the metric dimensions, so I converted (E46 dimensions in parens):
height: 56" (55.7)
front track: 59 (58.3)
rear track:59.6 (58.8)
width w/o mirrors:71.5 (68.4)
width w/ mirrors: 79.2 (76)
wheelbase: 108.6 (107.3)
overall length: 177.9 (176)
So, it is bigger in every dimension, gaining two inches in length and three in width.
