Anyway, I thought it was pretty cool.

ummmm... YIKES is all i have to say that thing is ugly i think

[jflip2002]

I think it looks fucking bad ass. If I wasnt poor, I would want one. I think thats the best current non M design, besides the E92 coupes.

You gotta picture that thing lowered though, and with some nice say... 21" BBS RKs or something.

I cannot imagine how someone explains that to the crowd as useful in any way.

"It's a sports car in an SUV body.... minus all the uses of the SUV, and without the nimbleness of the sports car."

Looks good, kinda cool to see BMW producing a hybrid too. I disagree that it's among the best looking models though... Come on, the 5 and 6 series are hot, so is the Z4! The only uglyish car they are making now is the 7 and the 1 imo.

Lol, I think the 5 and the Z4 are ugly. And the only nice one besides the E92 is the 7. And if its not an M6, I think its just overpriced.

If you want to haul some concrete from the home depot, like you would your suburban, you cant! But dont worry, if you wanna take it out on a nice canyon run, like you could your E30... You cant! Thanks for your money.


Thats how its done.

LOL, that is great. The tail lights remind me of a Acura Sedan instantly...

I like it! I would not mind one!

[JasonC]

Not my taste.

[jflip2002]

The rear sorta reminds me of the Z4 M Coupe. Lower that shit 3" and itd be bad ass.

Someone Pshop that lowered, with some 21" RKs or something.

I like it, I think it's a cool idea and I appreciate its uniqueness but I probably wouldn't buy one. For those of you against it think about the concept and what american car buyers like these days: high seating position (I've never understood what's so great about this but I've heard it ovr and over), sportiness, fuel economy (optional sometimes but becoming more important). How many buyers of luxury SUV's actually use the cargo space? Not many. This seems like the perfect storm for the American lux car buyer.
