Nice, Nice... An evolution indeed; I'm just not that hot on:

- No more split tailgate :-(
- That E60ish interior... I guess It'll grow on me..
- That funky-joystick-ish shifter.... I guess it'll REALLY have to grow and grow on me....

Good thing I've got 36 months left on my 2006-model lease for all the quirks to grow on me

The tailgate is still split...same as current E53 tail gate. See pic below.
The interior is lot better than E60
I kind of like the shifter.

Finally, it looks like the cup holder will hold two regular cups of coffee

I love the shot of it driving down the coastal road I'm starting to get the new car itch. I have 17 months left

I don't mean that, I love my girl. She's getting better with age. Maybe we're just finally getting to know each other.

Thanks for the pics!

Great new pics. The cupholders looks like a better design than the current E90 & E60 cars. I never had any problems with the E53 cupholders, but the E70 cupholders appear to hold bigger cups!

Oh LA LA! IMO, each successive iteration of Bangle's design language gets better and better (that's not to say it started out well, but I like where it is going). This is truly the first replacement of an existing BMW architecture with the new design cues that I am immediately sold upon. I like darn near everything about it!
