I think that holistically the 5er is the better design. Also looks more modern which signifies how daring CHris Bangles design really was. I have always loved the 5er! Looks great as a sedan and great as a wagon. I don't like the rear of the Volvo. To much break light IMO. Doesn't combine nicely with the steep acsent of the rear. The BMW looks smoother and more visually aggresive.

Need-less to say however, they are both nice cars and great buys respectively!
