Good eye! Hard to see in the second interior pic, but you may be right about what it does.

I love it! I especially like the back. The lights almost remind me of the E46 sedan. I love the interior too, I think it looks very classy.

Love it. I'm just sorry someone posted these pics before LeMans!

I don't think it looks sloppy. I think quite the opposite lol.

The side wings have grown into where the hood used to be. And it takes some good metal engineering to pull of such a smooth and undisturbed look in the headlight. The second circle, is just part of flame surfacing. The surfaces don't match on purpose. It's meant to make the grill look more inlet then the bumper, but at the same time make the grill look farther then anything else on the body.

So whats up with the new engine? Do I spy twin turbo's on the 4.8 ?

Twin air intakes, but not twin turbos.

Looks great but why did they do away with the painted front and rear valence?

Those will probably reappear with the new top of the line X5. Rumors peg it to either have a de-tuned V10 from the M5 or some variation of the current V8.
