- The third has the Cornering Light and blue elements like the pre-LCI Laser Lights. The third picture came from the BMWUSA website.

I was wondering the same thing. They're gone from the X3 and X7 so I assumed they're gone here too, but that third picture is interesting...

I'll have a hard time parting with my X3 M40i (my favorite all-around car ever) but look forward to fewer trips to the gas station given my city driving patterns.
Here are some thoughts:
Awesome: - The rear tail lights are much improved. They have a point of view and look much less "bug eyed."
- The 50e wheels in the press photos are gorgeous. I hope these are all-season because I''m never again making the mistake of buying a wheel that doesn't support all-season (such as on my 21" X3 wheels...). The tire swapping is a hassle.
- From the below photo, looks like I can get Bowers and Wilkins on the 50e. YES.
- I really like the seat pattern in the below photo. Might anyone know if these non-leather seats are as comfortable as the leather?
Hmm:[LIST][*] The price is obnoxious. I'm going to load it up fully and might also cross-shop against a Cayenne at this point. But BMW tech/automation always win.[*] While the front end looks much better for the base model (even despite the simpler headlights), I wonder if the M Sport front end will look great in anything but black. Since I wanted to get Dravit Gray, I'll need to do a long think about color. Any suggestions here? |
Cayenne price gets obnoxious pretty fast too once you start adding options. I was comparing the Cayenne GTS Coupe, X6M, and GLE 63S Coupe. Aside from being the slowest of the three, it was around 10-15k more if optioned to be equivalent to the other two.
