I am a huge fan of the current E60 model, especially the 550i*, cant wait for the facelifted '08 models**! But the 5-Series for 2010 reminds me too much of a Lexus (not a good thing, for me atleast), I dont know why. I certainly hope it grows on me though.

*360 HP & 360 ft-lb torque!

No idea, but did you know:
In Quitman, Georgia, it is illegal for a chicken to cross a road.
It is illegal to wear a goatee without a license in Massachusetts.
In New Jersey it is against the law to "frown'' at a police officer and in Newark, it is illegal to sell ice cream after 6pm, unless the customer has a note from his doctor.
In Pennsylvania "Any motorist who sights a team of horses coming toward him must pull well off the road, cover his car with a blanket or canvas that blends with the countryside, and let the horses pass. If the horses appear skittish, the motorist must take his car apart, piece by piece, and hide it under the nearest bushes".
In Tennessee it is illegal to use a lasso to catch a fish and in Memphis, it is illegal for a woman to drive by herself; "a man must walk or run in front of the vehicle, waving a red flag in order to warn approaching pedestrians and motorists.''
It is illigal top wear a dake moustache that causes laughter in church in Alabama.
And finally a car related one, In Glendale, Arizona. it is illigal to drive a car in reverse.

Me too - I like it a lot... it reminds me of 2 Citroens, the DS and SM - especially this excellent reinterpetation ... an SM Redesign:
