jusjankey · 10-02-2008, 12:20 PM

slipknot · 10-02-2008, 12:27 PM

looks very good!

SoCali E90 · 10-02-2008, 12:57 PM

Raja Ventureshield · 10-02-2008, 01:11 PM

MMVI · 10-02-2008, 01:17 PM

BM2006i · 10-02-2008, 02:34 PM

X1 sits lower, looks more like hatch+wagon?
X3 looks more like a SUV/MiniVan?

GR8TNESS · 10-02-2008, 02:43 PM

I wonder whats the name of that color? Phoenix Yellow II?

TheDarkone · 10-02-2008, 02:44 PM

maybe it's design was to take on subaru?

if the X6 is a Sport Activity Coupe
and the X5 is a Sport Activity Vehicle

What is the X1 Sport Activity ????

MidwestBimmerFan · 10-02-2008, 02:55 PM

Very nice! When I saw the first pics I was very dissapointed but now that i see the real life pics i like it a lot. Hopefully it gets the 3.0 twin turbo with a six speed.

Crazy Bimmer · 10-02-2008, 03:40 PM

Love it!

ebeem · 10-02-2008, 03:52 PM

what a fugly car...
and the colour makes it all worse!

TomBMW · 10-02-2008, 03:53 PM

I think they missed the mark on the new kidney grills.

ebeem · 10-02-2008, 03:59 PM

Yes...the grills are way too big
and the rear lights look Audi like...

The gap between tire and chassis looks huge...I guess it's because of the small wheels

not amen to only that but, bmw should also consider designing less suvs and better current or future concepts, ex. wtf is up with the 7 series ?? design is fugly through out, except the interior, the new 3 series is a very very nice car but still could have used little bit more of a touch on the designing of there rear lights.

Year's_End · 10-02-2008, 11:58 PM

fuggly ass pos

d3l0n · 10-03-2008, 02:26 AM

Guys, infiniti has the EX. This competes with that market. Yeah.. whats the sense of the X3? uhh... lol to become X5'ish.. then X5 wil become even bigger? Luxury SUV? Longer wheel base like the 7? and the X6 will just be sporty? I think BMW is trying to be in every category there is.. and if there isnt one, THEY WILL CREATE IT! lol

This looks better than i thought.. it does look almost cheapo.. but worth the name X1

Hula-Hula · 10-03-2008, 02:35 AM

I really like the rear!

That grill is the new BMW style, will probably be on every modell eventually.. Hopefully it will look better in person..?!
