I think I have seen 2 and 1 of them was advertising the dealer at the airport.

Anyone seen a lot of 'em?

E92 m3s outnumber the 5 series by 5 to 1 in my town. I'm sure the 1 I saw was a demo too.

Grill is massive. Seeing a lot more jags now too.

Was overtaken by a new 5er in Portugal a couple of weeks ago. Haven't seen any others before or since. Have seen more 5GTs floating about though.

I might have seen one...

Don't mind admitting that at the moment I haven't quite got the hang of differentiating the new 5, 7 and GT paperbag

The only cars out there at the moment are demos as all the orders being made at the moment are for Sept delivery. Hope this helps

Me too!

I have seen several new 5ers on my daily trawl up and down the M1. Looking forward to seeing if the M Sport adds some visual drama

Saw a couple today on the M25.

The 520d will be being delivered from the end of June/ early July and the estate will be in September. Most dealers seem to have sold their allocation and now saying Sept/Oct.

Wish I had one on order frown
