Good catch! I'd seen probably hundreds of pre-production, concept and next generation models testing in and out of Southern California. But unforuntely, I don't have a camera on me or I'll be posting them here.

Re: Exclusive: BMW 7-Series Spy Shots

bmw's look is so tired and old already and the 7 series has been ugly for a long time and this changes nothing about that.

Re: Exclusive: BMW 7-Series Spy Shots

BMW's pretty cagey about their camo. Those plastic panels completely hide the looks of the car.

Yeah unlike GM Ford or Chrysler, BMW is very protective about their test cars. whereas the Big three will use stripes, or diapers and call it a day. BMW will go to any lengths to completely hide the car
