Production for the 2016 5-series ends in October 2016. The G30 will be a 2017 model in the USA so we should see them around March 2017 in dealerships.

I think the end of production will be the end of May 2016.
The start of production for G30 should be around July with US deliveries starting in late August/Early Sept. That is my best guest |

No official word still, but i have only read from this forum that it will premiere in Paris October 2016. Everywhere else it says summer 2016.
"In Summer 2016, BMW will unveil a new generation of the midsize 5 Series sedan. Built under the chassis name – G30" http://www.bmwblog.com/2015/11/05/g3...endered-again/ "Codenamed G30, the sixth generation of BMW’s exec saloon arrives in summer 2016" http://www.carmagazine.co.uk/spy-sho...scoop-dossier/ "The 2016 BMW 5 Series is slated for a world premiere in the summer of 2016 in Europe" http://indianautosblog.com/2015/10/2...snapped-199601 I personally have to decide between the Mercedes E-class W213 and BMW G30. Mercedes will premiere in January at Detroit. I have no time to wait till october, so i hope it's wrong. Last edited by El_Ucca; 11-16-2015 at 12:06 AM.. |

In any case, I think there's no competition there...the E-Class is so horribly wrong and ugly! I can assure you without even seeing the new 5 yet, I will bet on it any given day! |

E-class was facelifted in 2013. Mercedes has new a design language set by the S-class in 2013. Previous E class was horrible looking (facelift was ok from the outside) and so was C class. But since the new S-class, they have looked good. Here are some pictures of my 2015 C-class. Do you find it ugly? If you do, then you will find the new E-class ugly too, especially from the outside. http://mbworld.org/forums/c-class-w2...ml#post6304734 I had to choose between 3 or 4 series and the new C-class. 3-series was so cheap looking from the inside, i could not stand it, so i got the new c. It's a great car. Last edited by El_Ucca; 11-17-2015 at 08:36 AM.. |

I will never say it is a bad car though,... I'm sure it is a solid car... however, I went with the new 3 series, as I thought it was gorgeous looking compared to C....so it is relative. but I just would never buy one due to design aspects... |

The current, outgoing E-Class always looked dated compared to the F10. Benz got confused with its design somewhere down the road, Hyundai lights, the late 90's dated interior design, all of it was just really bad in my opinion. Car had no road presence, especially when compared to F10.
The 2017 E-Class is going to be a completely new car, chassis, engines, tech, everything (plenty of articles on the internet). I think it will give BMW run for the money. Gotta love the competition. Customer always wins. My take on the C-class vs F30....the new C-class interior is light years ahead of the F30 interior (yes, I know benz is a newer car). F30 is a great ride, but I personally wouldn't be able to live with that interior at that price point. To each his own....

I recently drove the old C-class W204 and that my friends was fugly. It was horrible. It really looked like back in the late 90s. The difference between the old C-class and the new is huge. |
