Bleah. I had hoped the 7-series was just going to be a bad dream. OTOH, the E320s and E500s I see on occasion just lock my attention. Ditto the entire Jag line.

IMO, another example of a car that just isn't meant to have wings and fascia spoilers. The rear window wing doesn't do it any justice at all, especially since there is little improving to be done to a 7 series that would not make it uglier than it already is. Keep the rims, lower the damn thing since it's so freaking huge, and maybe then we can talk.
I'd still take an S55 over that...uh...thing...any day.

See, you have to make the 7 series solid black (which hides the ugly creases and lines) and black out all the reflectors all over the ass end to make it look like... a Bonneville.

Agreed that they needed to change the 5 series, but the new one looks like ass. Two big, crooked, thumbs down.
