Is the consensus that this will be a 2013 model or 2014?

Just read it will be a 2014 model coming out late 2013...

Please post more pix if you guys find...

Looks very long, both front and rear. Wheelbase also appears longer. Looks suspiciously like my old Caddy SRX.

I pictured it with more concept-like contours. Instead it looks pretty bland in that dept. Just a long wagon worse than the current gen. Or maybe it's just really good camo. ;)

Really good camo.

WHY WHY WHY must everything get bigger???? May have to go to the soon to be redesigned and hugely unreliable Range Rover Sport... This reminds me of a MB GL family wagon with a hood off the F10 5 series.

I truly hope its fantastic camo.

The lines looks similar to the recently updated X3. Though you can just tell it'll have the squarer looking Halo DRLs which seems to be the new look for BMWs soon to be released (like the new 3 Series).

Looks like there will be slightly more room for 3rd row
 
It looks like there is a little more room between the rear tire and the back of the car compared to the E70.

Opening for the Front kidney grills look enormous compared to E70.

Hood looks like it is a little more "bowed" as it bends from windshield to front bumper (a la the F30).

Getting excited. Thanks so much for posting these photos.

I think the E70 is the best looking SUV on the road today (as does my car-obsessed daughter) and I am hopeful that the F15 will continue that tradition.

Also excited to update the technology to the new (3-series, 6-series) capabilities (HUD, iDrive screen, start/stop technology, lighter weight(?))

Thanks again for the photos.
