I don’t know why, but as a lot of other people have said, it really is ok in person... the poor thing just isn’t that photogenic

That shopping cart next to your car makes me nervous!

It's all down to personal preference, but I think your f15 looks better than the g05 in the photo.
What do you think?

I”m not sure, to be honest. I go back and forth. I do think the G05 looks better in person than in pics...and with the Msport pack and black grill inserts with chrome surround it looks really really good... that’s not what is in that pic, I know, but in that configuration, I’d pick it as being the better looking. I’m picking up my new one tomorrow.

For what it's worth, the X7 does in fact have noticeably more 2nd row legroom than the G05. More than the 0.2" additional legroom stated in the specs.

The 2nd row in the X7 slides several inches towards to the back...that is why there is more room. If it is in its "default" position the difference is only .2" from the X5.

Yup, that's exactly what we found. See the link I posted for details:
