The touring definitely looks nicer than the sedan (as so often), and I have to admit that in M-Sport trim here, it looks ok, but this generation is not a high point in 5 series styling. Many variants of this car just look terrible.
I appreciate BMW taking risks in styling, as I respect those who go their own way (companies, too), but I really don't get what the designers were thinking overall. The car has many awkward angles, and "sport" is not the first thing that comes to mind when I see one.
The G31 has a few awkward angles, too, but the overall design is proportionally harmonious, and in the M-Sport and M trims, looks purposeful.
This? Hm...
