This is going to look good ….I do think the LCI X3 looks better than the pre LCI X5.

The best BMW in the whole range (together with the 3er).

5 series and M2 for me.

I think the M2 is already out of production, otherwise one really great looking BMW. Consideribg the 5er it looks somehow fat, not muscular enough to my eyes. Can't point exactly why.

They aren't going to offer an G42 M2?

Except for the Bangle versions, I have always thought that the 5er was best in class looks wise (driving dynamics as well).

They are definitely going to offer a G42 M2, I thought you meant the previous one.

Sorry about the confusion and for hijacking the thread guys. I meant the M2 in general.

This actually looks good.
I wonder if the rivets underneath the headlights hide similar outlines to the XM? The G90 M5 also shows something similar.

Yes. The regular X5 seem to have the same grille shape as the pre-LCI.
I wonder why they went with this direction with the X5M

SCOTT27 · Jan 20, 2022

In regards to the covered riveted panel at the base of the headlights. This is what I was meaning.

f#ck THAT!!!!

I surely thought they would rectify the X6 grille with the facelift but they're doing the opposite. Truly terrible.

X5 is way better proportioned. Details and rear is also far better on the X5, and the interior too. No match. X3 is lovely but X5 is where it's at for the X models from BMW.
