styling
It is designed by Adrian van Hooydonk, with a more prominent upright grille split kidney and the absence of the "Bangle butt" rear-end styling of its predecessor E60. Externally, the car is a more traditional design BMWesque; a far more sober effort after the highly controversial E60. Although it bears some resemblance to the E60 with the wide kidney grilles and a very pronounced Hofmeister kink, the creases in the bonnet and just underneath the door Cleary are related to the E39 and other models Earlier 5 series. Inside marks the return of the center console being angled towards the driver Cleary, another marked change from its immediate predecessor the which was noted for its non-traditional BMW design. However, opinion is Divided, as a reviewer described the F10 as too bland and conservative, compared to the E60 predecessor, as well too much resemblance to the E90 3-Series.
