My 2007, 2008 and now my 2011 E70s had and have MORE orange peel than any other car I have ever had (and we've had A LOT). It is just something, I overlook on the E70...but the orange peel is SO bad. At certain angles...my ENTIRE 2011 X5 is covered with orange peel...every surface, every panel! Luckily, when clean and waxed and in most light...the paint is really shiny and glossy, but holy sh*t, at certain angles, the paint job looks home done!
