I think they look different.

However.......I have been asked many times.....

"hey, how do you like your 5er?"

so, I think to many people, they look more alike than we realize.

Dressing up a 325i to look like an M5 is a bit sad anyway, IMO.

No offenses, isn't it a bit like wearing a fake Rolex, knowing it's not the real thing?

Could it look like an M3 sedan (at least what it could look like), maybe. Look like an M5, nope. Too many differences with the lights, grill, back end, etc.

you may think its nuts, but i think it would look better. i'm not crazy about the m5's looks. i respect it for its power though, of course.
