e60 M5 pics from the dealer

No biggie, there's plenty of better pics of the new M5, but here's a few shots I took while at work on Friday.

Somehow the whole bulbousness of it worries me. Ford Taurus here we come D:. They just need the guy who designed the e34 back there :)

I am with you for now. When BMW changes body platforms, I never like for at least 2-3 years and then I like it.

Ed--thanks for including the engine shot. It is awe inspiring.

I was surprised to see the vintage mercedes at your dealership. It is good to be able to imagine you cruising around that place, selling bimmers, and keeping us in servers.

At the risk of being bannished from this forum, I must say I love the look of the E 60. Even more than the E 34 (There, I've said it - it was nice knowing you ! :D ) and certainly more than the E 39 but it is growing on me - especially in M5 guise.
Sorry guys, can't help myself.
Do wish they had kept it manual though.
If only I could afford a low mileage E 39 M5 to have in the garage for Sundays ................ Dream on - not till after the kids leave home. :p
By then they'll almost be affordable. ;)
