Around oct. or so. The 7 series update is quote "the fastest model redo in the history of the proud Munich firm."

And I think I read that the upcoming 5 series might be redesigned 2 years after release as well. Let me find the articles.

Sh*t, already damn i like the new 7 series as it is. This is going to look like the design team fuked up bigtime.

 

[StreetTrixE4six]

good, i think the new 7 is nasty. needed a new front and rear

 

[dsifer]

wtf

 

[Double Vanos]

But again there is always room for improvement.

This is the best news I've heard in a while. Maybe they'll decide to dump Bangle soon. One can only dream.

 

[simsima325]

models are facelifted all the time. the same is happening to our 3 coupe, as it happened to the 3 sedan in 02. if they get rid of the eyebrow turn signals, i think thats a step in the right direction :thumbup:

 

[blu325coupe2k2]

But again there is always room for improvement.

Yup...and in the case of the 7'er, improvement in the looks department is needed ASAP.

Woohoo, those eyebrows are the worst part of the design imho.

That's going to piss off people who purchase the current "new" 7-Series.

You used to be able to count on the same BMW car shape for at least 7 solid years, unlike japanese cars that changed design every 3 - 4 years. This way your car does not become out dated.

But now with constant updates they just going to irritate their customers.

I hope BMW reconsiders what the 5 & 3 Series will look like in the near future. I will not buy anything that resembles the new 7 series style!

 

[spubar]

Good start, finally BMW does something right. Now they need to redesign all their cars including the new 3, 6 and 5 series.

 

[smoke]

no.

 

[GhostRider]

I think the redesign is a good idea.......unless it gets worse...... :tsk:


I feel really sorry for those who snag the 760 before the redesign :lmao:

 

[SpeedinBlueBimmer]

they should redesign it with out having imput from bangle

 

[MachRc]

yea this does really blow for the new 7'er owners

 

[color_wolf]

y does everyone dislike the 7 ??
I for one like the look of the 7 series.
It looks better than the previous model at least.
In black i feel that the car looks impin:


But hopefully the facelift will make it look even better ...

 

[Blue330CiC]

I am sure BMW got that design years ago already. It takes BMW 5-7 years to design a new model..the current E46 was designed back in 1992, believe it or not!

That's great to hear. The 7 just looks horrid in comparison to the flagship sedans of the other major luxury car manufacturers.
