New spy pics of 2007 X5.

Guys I did some spy work and digged out these new photos of a few '07 X5's gathering in an unknown location. Still can't see too much details but in a couple of shots we can see the front bumpers a little clearer. There seem to be less claddings in these photos but really I can't see too much else.

Have a look guys.

I'm liking what I see in the new front bumper treatment. Very aggressive looking.

I'm w/Wagner...it would be a pleasant surprise if it did turn out like the AutoBild pic...hard to see where the 3rd row is, (I don't want it or need it.) Maybe a vestigial row for strapping in tantrum throwing kids or your mother-in-law, lol!

The test dogs look like something Mel would drive in MadMaxFive.

Edit: Good dig, Phong, Thanks!

If it looks like the autoblind ones....I'm in.....that thing looks very 'tough'.

Just needs a more square rear and quad pipes of course

I like the front treatment too, but like every other recent BMW, the rear isn't immediately appealing. Maybe it'll grow me. Overall, it seems like BMW has thrown more utility into this one. Look at how long the rear over-hang is. Towing characteristics should change for the worse because of this. Overall, I prefer what we've got going right now.

Pics definitely show the longer rear overhang... Longer X5... maybe with 3rd row seats???

That auto-bild pic has been around for over a year. Came out around the time those snowflake style wheels were popular. My guess is that its artist's conception.

I think E70 is 4"-5" longer.

Seems like we are heading for Geneva auto show unveiling.
