Their photog game has really stepped up in recent years. Their IG account is worth following too, even if just for the photos.

The last pic really makes the new grill look out of place, I don't hate the design, the worst part is really the merging of the 2 parts and its a little too big..

Audi has the "Easy Bake Oven" front grill., BMW has the "Twin Easy Bake". Honorable mention goes to Lexus' Accordion style which takes the cake. Bigger not always better folks.

Agreed. But they do come with them if you get the package that includes it. Not sure which one it is probably the one with rear heated seats Or something. But as usual I'm sure they can be coded to be turned off easily enough.

The grille on the new one just grosses me out. Agree that the E53 design was terrific, but I like our E70, too. But this one . . . Bugs Bunny would love it, I guess. We're going to have to get a new X sooner or later, and right now I'm leaning to the X3, which is about as big in its current incarnation as the original E53 X5.

Yes, a must have hare, unless you keep a 5s distance to the car in front of you, your windscreen and headlights needs a wash every 15min, and also BMW provides heated jets as standard here. Also we use an alcohol mix to avoid the liquid to freeze.

If the E53 isn't considered timeless I don't know what is!
Meanwhile, the E70 still looks like it could sit in a showroom today and outsell it's competition. |

At the time when I needed a SUV the E53 was really fine.
The same bright and wide interior feeling that I loved in this car I have now in the i3. When I look at the back of the new Gen X5 every time I have to double check the manufactures sign if it's not an Audi or Volkswagen, due to the backlight design. |
