What were they thinking?

Wasn't this car designed by an american from Ohio or something? i think the previous gen was designed by a japanese.

who would buy this?

Looks good

>buying a bmw ever

what were they thinking

It's okay visually. At least it's not the Banglebutt 7er.

apparently the right thing considering it still looks up to date for a car of 2001.

in my opinion it's butt ugly but it inspired tons of others to go that path.

BMW looking more and more like Mazdas, desu.

>said Car released in ~04

>It looks like a mazda built today.

Aged very nicely desu. What other cars still look great? The Porsches always age well. Cadillacs did not. Even the 04 ones look like shit now. So do lexus from that era.

>Aged very nicely desu. What other cars still look great?

A car aging well doesn't automatically mean it looks great. People can't fucking stop mixing this up.

The car aged well because it doesn't look very outdated yet because it's one of the first who actually introduced the basics of today's design language.

It is still fucking ugly though.

I like it. It's a shame none of the engines have a dipstick and the 550i 6-speed is rare as hens teeth.

I have the 550i with the six speed. It is a blast to drive but keeping an E60 on the road cost as much as a new car payment.

Designed by an Italian but the guy that oversaw him was an American

>20yr old turks in germany to say: ey yo i've got a BMW
but everybody know they all drive the shitty one with lots of mileage.

e60 with m sport package looks pretty good for a 13 year old car.

>The Porsches always age well
98% of porsches literally look old.

this

> Porsches always age well

That`s because they never bothered to make a new design. Porsches look identical from the 70s up to the 90s. Literally no one except a Porsche autist would know the difference.

porsches do not age well. They dont even look good fresh from the factory

the last 3 generations of 911 look like shit

Cadillacs always look good. Always.

Front looks pretty feminine. flowing headlights with mascara, small grille
