The i5 and 5 series go by the same chassis code, G60. Just as the 4GC and i4 both go by G26.

Could do with half the time watching this video. Want to see the actual car w/o camo. Maybe then I will get excited.

Loving the normal sized moonroof! These full glass ones aren't sporty! Renewed my interest on an i5! Normal headlights! Maybe a normal hood line that extends to the kidney. I might just be a buyer!

Hopefully priced like a 5er. There's hope!

hopefully no crazy experiments with the headlights and this car will turn out pretty nice.

3. It will increase in size
