Poll - Is the 2007 X5 front just plain fugly or is it just me?

TJunkers just posted some stealth pictures of the 2007 model. I've seen the brochures and adverts but I'm really not a fan of the front. I'm enamored with the current face and I'll really have to wait for the next facelift before considering an X5. It looks like an X3?

You dont like it? Wait a couple minutes. I am the most guilty person of this...The e60? Couldnt STAND looking at the thing. Now I think its gorgeous. e90? Same thing. BMW's seem to have a way to grow on you. At least they do on me..

Now the e70, I think is very nice looking. As I said many times, its one the f*&#@in plastic sh*t that pisses me off to no end. And that I never get used to, or like. Probably why the e90 and e60 are the nicest looking vehicles on the road right now.

I usually can tell if a design will grow on me. When I saw the 2002 7-series, I thought the front was....wierd but could learn to live with it. And I got used to it.......even the rear! When I saw the rear of the E60, I knew it was going to be bad. And after 3 years, it still is. When I saw the E90, I didn't like the rear. And I still don't. When I saw the 6-series, I knew it was different but I could live with it. Today, I still like it, even the rear end.

Onto non-BMWs, for those of you who think the X3 is ugly, check out the poseur Acura RDX. That is one fugly exterior design.......the worst ever from Acura. (The MDX ain't good either).

Beauty lies in the eye......

I still think the Pathfinder is one of the nicest looking 4x4's on the road...I usually get punched after saying that...

Looks more like station wagon, than a SUV.

Honestly I really like the E70, maybe you should just stop complaining and join a Buick forum, and then you will have nothing to complain about To me on road performance means a lot more than looks.
