Amazing shade of silver

Wow, another really fast raised station wagon that will never see/be able to handle off-roading if its life depended on it.

Looks great but the body styling like lower spoilers and rear spoliers etc are ugly. Looks overdone

I agree - the X5 and the current 3 are the only BM's left that is still nice to look at, although with the new 3 that is about to change.

I'd rather get a Cayenne Turbo. The Porsche is a pretty good value if you ask me.

Yeah, compare it to spending about $130-150 for 911! Plus the Bimmer looks very ugly in the inside! I really don't care, I just love the M3 and SL55! Oh, and a Murciealgo and 360 Spider.
