I don't think current photos out may do this car justice.. Sort of like a bad photo of a supermodel.

Whoever decided chrome in the interior was a good idea deserves a kick in the balls. It almost looks like an Italian-designed monstrosity. I guess it's better in M sport trim on the outside, but not by much.

any hangs ups I have with the exterior on this car I think are quickly remedied by the incredible amount of tech and sportiness this car has.

Wow, amazing what different photos can do. When the car was accidentally revealed a few months back it looked bad, with yesterday's photos the car looked good but not great, and now with these shots it looks amazing. S class went from looking substantially better, to slightly better, to now less attractive than the 7. lol Goes to show how far lighting and location go.

I don't hate it. M Sport makes every BMW model look correct other than the X5. The interior looks very nice.

I don't particularly love the black trim piece from the air outlet behind the front wheel down the side and I don't love the black trim piece on the rear bumper that goes around the exhaust.

This is your opinion, which is only that at best. I love it, especially in person. It's not chrome, it's polished aluminum-usually this is only found on concept cars, which makes me like it even more. And your opinion on M-Sport not helping by much, is again only your opinion-I think it looks absolutely incredible.

definitely does not do justice. I've personally seen the car and it will give MB, Lexus and Audi a run for its $$$. The interior is gorgeous. I just wish that the shorter wheel base is something they would consider.

In my opinion this car turned out a lot better than I thought based on the leaked pictures. It is a major step forward in every respect compared to the previous gen 7er and even though I didnt think it would be a match for the S-Class now I think it really is. I'm looking forward to 760i and hopefully M7. Also, to 8-Series Coupe, Convertible and Gran Coupe!

Those are by far the best photos yet and have really changed my perspective on the G11. Thanks to whoever posted them.

With the lease of my 2012 coming up in December, I'm starting to really look hard at the G11.

Which bmw the sport or m sport kit don't make look better? The sport and m sport almost always make the car looks better. And this goes for many other brand.

In my opinion this car is extremely gaudy and poorly executed. The front grilles are so huge they look like the pigs off angry birds. The chrome inside flows about as well as molasses.
Just terrible.

Not quite my style but this is a very significant improvement over anything we've seen.

A bit off topic here, but the design of this car is yet another indictment to the F10. Interior and exterior, they look like two [only] slightly different sizes of the same car to me. The F10 is too big and "luxe", which is going to continue to make the 7 that much harder to differentiate among the lineup.

It's satin aluminum, cold hard metal, not chrome. All the audis and Mercedes have the same type of metal on all their switches and trims too. If anything I think BMW has implemented it very tastefully.
