Germans have crazy words for interesting concepts. (like finding pleasure in suffering of others)

The other one is - Rear view mirror intimidation.

Engineers and designers actually work on that, so the cars wil move over when you fly up behind them.

It must work, because i definitely notice people moving over more for x5 than they used to for M3 and M5. And that is in US - where nobody moves.
BMW is not the only one - others are going aggressive too. I still like the menacing BMW look the most

Lol .. you should try driving a Wrangler with a 4.5 inch lift and 37s. Nothing about an X5 is intimidating.

Oh no .. an upper middle class SUV!!

Different type of intimidation Germans are talking about. It's about speed and handling,.
Something approaching you at 150 mph on the autobahn - you want to spot it early and move out of the way
Wrangler wil not even qualify for the right lane on the autobahn and will topple over on the firs 60mph ramp. Maybe its good for intimidating cows but that's about it

as for X5 - i like what Germans did to the car,. someone took the pic that looks pretty aggressive to me

Nothing about a girls car with a lift kit is intimidating either.

My wife always said she wanted a Wrangler so I bought her a new fully loaded Wrangler Unlimited Sahara for our anniversary and had it delivered with a bow. It lasted about a year as she hated how unstable it felt at 65mph and she doesnt even drive fast. It’s as aerodynamic as a billboard and crosswind on the highway pushes it around like a bully shaking down a kid for lunch money.
She traded it in for a Audi A4 S-Line.
