I would be SO down with the LCI using X6 lights. I LOVE the front of the X6, but not the Prius-like ass...

And maybe thats why there is a 2 week hiatus on tours... building prototypes?

This picture gives a good comparison between X5 M and regular X5 front, especially the X6 style headlights.

I am sure there will be lot members here getting X5 M bumpers /front fenders on their X5s.

It still doesn't seem to be really aggressive. Maybe it is because of the color and the coverings. Right now I think it would be hard to tell it apart from a normal x5 4.8i.

Thanks again LemansX5 and Palbay!

I agree, but the Cayenne Turbo is the same look as the 'S'.. Only the ML63 is an obvious departure from it's less-powered siblings (and IMO, that look is overdone).

I, like many others have already stated, hope that is it more aggressive looking to make it stand out from the rest.

I love the departure look of the ML63 that makes it different and noticeable enough that when most see it they know it is not "regular"

no side sills?

From what I have heard; there will be lot of body colored parts as compared to regular X5, e.g. Wheel arches, side skirts, etc. we will see more body color and less of plastic/ black parts. i will reserve my opinion till the final pics of the beast with massive torque are released.
