Talk about NO proportion, BMW designers need to scale that down. Terrible.
Agreed. It looks pretty terrible. Those vertical gaps are pretty big ... seeing the radiator as easily as you can on this isn't adding to the attractiveness.

I'd go for a bit wider Kidneys, as the space between the two is pretty wide. Add a few more vertical louvers in there as well.

A couple things I like about this new X5 are the rear lights and that they're mellowing out the use of angles/sculpted edges in the panels ... for a while now X5s were starting to look a bit too much like a big Ford Escape with Kidneys.
