Is it replacing the X3? Because they look about the same size. They need to get rid of that shifter, and implement the same one thats in the update 5 series / x5 / etc.

Otherwise I'd daily drive one. Would prefer a 3.0tdi Q5.

The Start button looks rather stupid to me. Why is everybody putting that in their cars nowadays? Does it make the cars go faster?

Glad to see they're selling it in what appears to be an appropriate crap brown color.

Allows the driver to avoid the strenuous activity of turning the wrist.

It's ugly as sin in the first pic, OK in some of the others.

I really don't know what BMW is doing anymore. The 1-series makes no sense to me. I don't know why anyone would buy one, outside perhaps of the 135 just to have a car that hauls. But they're not cheap. What's the difference between this and the X3?

And don't get me started on the X6. It's a car that makes absolutely no sense to me.

Have to agree with you there. The X6 is a turd. The X3 sucks. The X1.. what's the point.

X5 is excellent, especially in upcoming M form.

The X3 diesel isn't a bad car - the X5 is just better. Now the Cayenne diesel - that is a stunning piece of work. I know it will make Porsche purists cringe, and rock crawlers may laugh, but watch one wade through some deep sand (on track oriented Pirellis no less) and you may be in for quite a surprise.
