2005 BMW M5. Bangle should be hung.

Here is the official M5 "concept". It might look better in the flesh. (Pic from Autoweek)

Or when they do they end up with out-there designs like the Z4 and new 7-Series ...

I hate to admit it, but I like the new M5.

It's grown on me considerably, but Chris Bangle still needs to die!

Its hard to tell from the picture, but if it looks like the new 5 series from behind then it is one butt ugly car.

Doesn't look as good as the current one, but doesn't it come with a brand new V10 that pumps out almost 500 horse???

I hate it when folks get 'hanged' and 'hung' wrong. "He should be hung" is pure speculation unless you know him quite well.

Those headlights are just horrible. Makes me wanna puke whenever I see it.
And interior on those cars is even worse than exterior... just look at the lines (this is from 545):
