new x5?????
 
why would bmw ever create a car like that???? after creating the x3, which is ridiculously ugly, they decide to make the new x5's look like a taller and longer x3??!! very, very dissapointed with BMW, instead of making the x5 look meaner and beefier, the way it should look like, they turn it into an x3/minivan looking car....:tsk: :tsk: :tsk: :mad: just my 2 cents

I'd reserve judgement until you actually see the 'official' pictures or see it in person.

Well considering that X3 sales make up a large number of overall BMW sales, I think the general car buying public disagrees with some of the above statements.

As for the new X5, as I've said before, it will come out and in 9 months everyone will like the styling...just like the new 3 and 5 series looks.

A car like what? We have not yet seen any pictures of it. We've only seen some camo-laden mules... We don't really know yet what the thing will look like.

I'm willing to give BMW the benefit of the doubt; they know who their custoemrs are and what they want in a bimmer. I'm willing to bet they stay true to the BMW tradition of a high-performance vehicle.

Let's hold judgement until we see it and drive it.

Um...I hate the new 5 series. The new 3 is ok. If the new X5 looks anything like a larger X3, I'm looking elsewhere.

I like my X3.........:mad:

Sorry to slate the X3, but I hate it!! Anyone see the BBC topgear review??

Sorry to all you X3 owners, but you should have paid a bit more and got the much much much better X5. ;)

I LIKE MY 05 3.0 X3, I LIKE BEATING X5 3.0 TOO :rofl: :rofl:

How about we all agree to stop the "I wouldn't buy the 07 X5 threads" until the car is actually released in November. These are the most pointless threads in the world. They don't even bring up good arguments (which is the most enjoyable part of this board, ha-ha).

I don't know why anybody would hate the X3. That thing is a little BEAST with the 3.0 motor....not to mention outselling the X5 for March..again.

Funny that my X5 4.4 gets the same or just slightly better gas mileage than an X3. Im wondering why BMW did that.
