What do you think of the pic?
The photoshop around the headlights is bad. Looks like one side is at a different angle than other, as if the car is deformed.

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

The 5 liter V8 will 367hp. What happened to the 5 liter V10? will that be with ///M badge.

"Power is expected to come from two revamped Diesel engines, a 3,0 litre six cylinder / 231 HP and a 4,5 litre V8 / 330 HP. And from fuel engines starting with a 3,0 litre six cylinder / 258 HP up to a new V8 5,0 litre / 367 HP.

The new X5’s release is scheduled for October 2006, an M-version could be in the pipeline for later on."

There will be no M version of E70! Just "iS" with 400+hp V8 turbo - coming later, not at launch (December 2006). Press release with first info and pics coming in July / August. E53 production ends in September, E70 production starts in October.
