They did manage to make it look like the worst of the new 7 series up front.

It doesn't look that bad from other angles though. I like the white one best.

Contrary to original plans that X1 will not come to US....X1's US arrival is confirmed for US in 2011. The press release...

Woodcliff Lake, New Jersey – July 1, 2009 … It was confirmed today that the BMW X1 is planned to debut in the United States in calendar year 2011. The X1 has been conceived with the flexibility to offer traditional rear-wheel drive and xDrive all-wheel drive configurations, as well as a wide variety of gasoline and diesel powertrain choices. In light of rapidly evolving US market demands, fuel prices, and regulatory standards, elements of the X1’s US launch plan, including engine and drivetrain configurations, will be forthcoming closer to the time of launch.

The BMW X1 will debut in Europe this fall with a choice of four engines - one gasoline and three diesels - and will be available in rear-wheel drive and xDrive all-wheel drive configurations. The X1 will set new benchmarks in the premium compact segment for efficiency, comfort, utility, and of course driving dynamics. Achieving up to 5.2 L/100km (45.2 miles per US gallon) on the European test cycle, the BMW Advanced Diesel-powered X1 sDrive18d will provide remarkable fuel efficiency while still achieving a top speed of 200km/h (124mph). Each drivetrain choice for the X1 will showcase the latest results of BMW’s EfficientDynamics engineering strategy, which is focused to reduce emissions and consumption while enhancing the performance expected of any BMW.

^^That is good news LeMans.

I have come back to this thread a few times to look at the white one a little closer. I think it is already growing on me (the front may take some more time though). Any guess at the gas engines offered here? N/A six 230hp+/-? TT six about 300hp+/-? TT four 300hp+/-?

Xoutpost is going to be growing over the next few years.

2011...time flies, but that may be too long to wait, for us.
In the minority here, but I do like the front and, the back.
The side view is less than thrilling; sort of a half-azzed
"touring" look, imo.

If I was really excited I would be curious as to the width
of the usable horizontal space in back deck, as in can the
sumbitch hold golf bags horizontal? But, may need to replace
the CEO's CR-V before sometime in '11, and I suspect the price
will be in the upper atmosphere, compared to real world competition.
And, no diesel for US: genius thinking there in TeutonVille.

Thanks for the pics LM...I liked the prototype sketches
better and thought BMW might actually do something
leading edge for a change. What a concept...
