I can understand a car getting bigger but an SUV that gets bigger (and of course it might only be an inch longer when it comes out--who knows) at some point you lose handling characteristics when it becomes too big. Most people I think would agree that the e53 handles better and drives better than the bigger e70. I'm sure it will be ok when it comes out but to think that BMW will add much more weight and size to it will create a challenge to keep it driving like a BMW.
