Exactly. Although, I still can get myself to like the looks of the e60. I have an opportunity to buy an e60 545i sport right now for REALLY cheap, but I really can't see myself in one.
Don't do it, the car will fall apart and you will hate yourself!
I'm actually the opposite, when the E60 first came out I really like the design. It wasn't until I got on the inside of a earlier model and realized how badly they messed up the interior design on the car, which ruined the rest of the car for me. Late models improved but it still wasn't traditional BMW styling. Same goes with the E63 6ers and E65 sevens, just a bunch of creative nonsense. They managed to get it right with the E9X's since Joji Nagashima, being the designer of E36's and E39's, knew what a BMW should look like.
F10's are great, you park one right next to an E39 and you can see the resemblance. The lines on the hood make the front end aggressive and the M5 just amplifies that with the air ducts and creases in the bumper. I'm very happy with the current line up besides this new 1 series, they've managed to turn around a whole era of bad automotive design.
