WOW
I can't believe BMW is changing their legendary Angel Eyes. But I knew that if they were gonna change it, they were gonna make it like on the DTM car and honestly... it looks sick! Well done BMW!

I didn't notice a lot of change on the rear end, great looking LEDs in the front

love the squared corona ring LED headlights with the eye lash. The LCI look is cleaner with the nine grille slates rather then the twelve grille slats [didn't think it would, but it does] like always the LCI looks better then the pre-LCI....

I see Chrystler 200 face (delete kidney grill) on the LCI. The lights general shape and swollen forehead leaks of Chrystler cars.

Where are the turn signals in the new led headlights? Also, I LOVE squared off angel eyes!

It looks like they are above the head lights, very classy looking light design. Love the entire LCI design, Bravo BMW.

Looks good, keeps the 7er pretty modern. I guess no touchpad iDrive until the next-gen X5?
7er always looks better on the road than in pictures anyways. |

Pre-Lci looks so much more agressive and masculine up front. This one of the few BMW lci's that went from better to worse.

Is it just me, or does anyone else think that both versions of the 7 Series look sleepy, especially LCI? The headlamps on both look kind of like it has droopy eyelids and it's struggling to stay awake, pre-LCI because of that huge lip on top and especially LCI because it's like eyelids closing from the top and bottom.

personally hate the new design language - the front is so slopped towards the ground
F30 and now F10 there might be a slight increase due to a tiny decrease in drag in economy but the car loses any presence whatsoever. From far it looks so small and tiny. unacceptable for a large car |
