My Lease is up in 4/08 I believe and I will most likely be buying one (I'm going to of coarse look at current cars and gas prices)

You left out a few options on your poll, Ben...
but no biggie. I am curious about pricing: I suspect it is out of my rationalized ballpark. No 6 spd manual trans, longer, heavier, and gizmos up the wazoo. Too bad, as it really looks fine to my old addled eye. To all those of you that can/will grab one, I am slightly envious and wish you GL. BR,mD

To me, replacing my E53 with an E70 isn't about the release photos, but rather what I need from a vehicle.
I would like a 335 coupe (as well as a refreshed X3 for my wife) but headroom is likely to be too tight. Trying to get down to 2 vehicles. I wanted an M5, but can't rationalize the fuel consumption, as great as everything else is about it. I would probably get a 535T (no x) if they made one and imported it, if I could delete the pano roof (looking into it). I may end up with an E70 in another year for the same reason I bought the E53, simply that it was the best BMW for me at the time. My warranty is up next year, no extended warranty available in Canada, so I will have to do something by mid 2007.

I'll pass and keep my 'ol reliable E53. And I'm not liking the front end look of the E70...

I've got a 2003 X5 which is missing a few things that the current E53 has. The latest version of X-Drive for example. Being in a part of the country where snow is frequent and deep, and trailering snowmobiles to some backwoods unplowed areas, I need a vehicle that has the best snow capabilities possible. That, combined with the fact that I turn 50k on my car in the next few months, is the reason I've already put a deposit on a new E70.
