Looks more like an X3 to me, maybe the mid-model replacement?

This is the new E70 X5 in the pics, not X3.

Facelifted X3 will look exactly like this:



Coming in Fall 2006. New engines, new bumpers, new grille, "angel eyes" CELIS LED headlights, CELIS LED strips in rearlights, some chasis settings changed, better interior materials, dash coming with more wood / alu.

So if its not the X3 why bother putting X3 on the boot lid.

Or am I missing something?

Apart from my parker pen which I put down on my desk back in 1997 and have not seen it since!


Ok I'll bite.....What about the sun roof?

I think scott27 was saying that the pics on the first post ARE INDEED the X5. Then he posted the face-lifted X3 pics. The X5 in the first pics do look more like the X3 to me.

I like what i've seen from the spy pics. the 07 doesn't look too different (to me) at all from the 06...everyone who has posted that doesn't like the 07 hasn't stated why, other than it looks like the x3. anyone have a photos from similar angles to compare to the spy photos? i still do not see a big difference at all...

Not bad. seems like the silver strip in taillights extends all the way to the back and they have hidden it by putting red tape on it. Also the exhaust on black X5 is different probably the 3.0 version. Still no LED's
