X3?

[Semibeast]

Has anyone info on the X3? Pics, specs or launch? In the SOP and Launch list I posted, the launch was claimed to be in dec 03.

Thinking about a X5, but maybe I should wait for the X3?

The spy shots I have seen look like crap. So you never know what will actually emerge from the factory. The spy shots look a lot like a Subabru

If it take features from the current 3er, it could probably look really nice, but it's probably going to look more in line with BMW's new line of design.

I don't like the 7 E65, but I actually thought the Z4 was quite nice when I saw it in person, so it's going to be really exciting to see the new 5.

In other words I can't pass judgement on the Bangleization of BMW yet, maybe the 7 was a first try going bad (hopefully).

Well, I love the styling of the X5, I only wish it had Angeleys. The headlights look a little bit dated compared to the 2001- E39. Guess the facelift will take care of that.

The X5 isn't likely to offer a V8 either, so maybe X5 is the way to go.

I've actually seen the new X3 two weeks ago when travelling from Oslo to Kiel,on my way home, somewhere near Bremen.

I saw a car-truck with new Opel Vectra's (?!), and what I thought was an X5 covered in a white cover... but looking closer it appeared to be smaller than the Vectra standing below it.

My opinion: looked great, just like a baby-X5 with a more modern front-end and a bit more sporty look.
A few minutes later another truck with 6 more X3's passed the petrolstation where I was refuelling.
