    Re: New BMW PAS

    Seems to be a very innovative car. 

    Looks great for me. Front is nice, rear with the rear light desin very nice. Interior is very much like the X5, just the colors are new.

    The two way opening mechanism of the rear door would be something I would have loved to see on the Panamera. 

    One more thing - did you notice the way the front mirrors are mounted?

    I have a bit problems with the side view of the rear.

    Tonight at 18:00 Germany time official pictures should be available!


    Re: New BMW PAS

    What is this. A 5 wagon? A smaller X6?

    Re: New BMW PAS

    Official photos:

    My optinion - front looks good, but I don't like rest of the car... New 5 series should have similar front to this, and with more coupeish roof line than E60, new 5 series should look very good. 


    Re: New BMW PAS

    Back is like X6 actually.

    More photos...



    Re: New BMW PAS

    Thanks for the pix Lars Smiley

    I kind of like the design but not sure I would buy one Smiley.

    The rear door 2 way opening is very innovative and interesting indeed.

    More informations:

    • The wheelbase is 3070mm, exactly the length of the 7 Series
    • Overall length is 4998mm, 7cm shorter than the 7 Series
    • Height 1555mm
    • Individual rear seats separated by a center console, fully adjustable seats that can rely as well
    • Seat height is 574mm, compared to X6 at 732mm and 5 Series Sedan at 504mm
    • Trunk space volume of 1650 liters, close to the 1615 liters in the E61 5 Series Wagon
    • Frameless doors
    • Initially there will be only 6 cylinder engines with rear-wheel drive
    • V8 engine and all-wheel drive to follow at a later date
    • Eight-speed automatic gearbox


    Re: New BMW PAS

    It seems that BMW are under attack in their traditionally strong segments by lots of  other manufacturers and they come up with these eccentricities a la X6 and now this funnycar, to create what they think are new niches in order to defend their sales.

    They are trying to reinvent the wheel  because IMO these designs have nothing to offer.

    I think that point goes to Skoda! Smiley

    Anyway, I dont see the sence of this car. This roofline/sideline looks quite interesting on the X6 and suits it quite well, and I see no reason why anyone should choose the IMO ugly PAS over a X6.
    But as said before, I think we are going to see a great new 5 Series, and the M5 is going to be a hell of a car with a good design, DKG and an adjustable supspension. I think the engine has never been a problem for the M5 so far. Smiley

    its a volvo

    Re: New BMW PAS

    Thanks Shakal for the other pictures! Smiley

    The rear seat entertainment is much better integrated as in the Panamera!

    Still - seeing those other pictures I have to say... its a bit awkward, too. Must see the car in real and see how tall it is.

    I'm dissapointed that this big trunk doesnt have 100% flat flodable seats!


    Re: New BMW PAS

    why do they make them so huge now a days....
    --

    Re: New BMW PAS

    Looks like a beefed up Toyota Prius to me. Actually makes the Panamera look good in comparison.

    Sorry, a big yuck! from me.


    Re: New BMW PAS

    I think BMW should call this thing BMW Wolpertinger. Looks absolutley hideous IMO, horrible, can't stand it at all. Smiley


    BTW, according to the dictionary "Wolpertinger" translates into "Jackalope". Smiley


    PS: Post number 7.000. Yeah! Smiley

    If you mean kidneys... they must be almost vertical due to new EU safety  rules  . Small vertical kidneys wouldn't look well, thats reason why BMW is introducing those "XXL" kidneys...

    Lars: You posted first photos, so thanks goes to you  Smiley Smiley

    I don't like this 5 GT. Don't forget this concept has 25" rims and very special colour. With normal 18" rims it will look even worse. But we have nice preview how new 5 series will look - front will be very similar to this 5 GT.  A said a few days ago that next BMW (PAS) will be disappointment, but I have very high hopes for new 5 series.



    Re: New BMW PAS

    Here is silver 5 GT (in background on right side) with different rear lights... They look better than those on concept:

    I was refering to its legth... 5m! 460-470 would of been better IMO.

    Like you say, it's front looks good and if the 5-series gets this front thats a good start for the next 5-series Smiley

            You're right, cars are getting too big. Current 5 series got perfect dimensions... with  7 series is already very hard to navigate in city or find parking slot in city...

     New 5 series... imagine similar front to 5 GT and rear of this photoshop (is very accurate):


    Re: New BMW PAS

    I did not really like it.  Specially after the new 7 and Z, I think it is a dissapointment.  As others have mentioned the new 5 er front is looking good.  With the rest as above pic, it will be an awesome car.
