X3 facelift (pics inside)

This is a discussion on X3 facelift (pics inside) within the X3 SAV forums, part of the BMW category; I wouldn't call the X3 beatiful (it's far from that) but it's not as ugly as some suggest. In fact ...

I wouldn't call the X3 beatiful (it's far from that) but it's not as ugly as some suggest. In fact i wouldn't mind owing one but new 3 series is more beatiful and has better perceived quality so for that kind of money i would take E90 instead.

Re: X3 facelift (pics inside)
I like the new tail lights, brings it in line with the new 3er, as well as the angle lights!

Looks like BMW released cost cutting for quality was a bad idea, way before MB did!

Aswell as following the X5 the X3 will also gain an Si model at about this time next year. With the 335i gaining the turbo engine first and then the (european) X5 second further products will receive the engine, including the 5er and the X3 Si.

Re: X3 facelift (pics inside)
The only thing I like about the X3 is the proportions, all the design elements look not only off but very half done.

325Xi touring for me.

Re: X3 facelift (pics inside)
Lehmann is pure stupid!

And I'm very disappointed in WCF.

The X3 in the pic is current (non-facelifted) X3 with M package exterior trim which is standard in US market from MY 2005, and optional elsewhere.

The facelifted X3 will look exactly like this:



New front & rear bumpers, new rear lights graphics (with CELIS LED strips), headlights with CELIS LED rings, new grill. New engines, new steering & susspension settings. Better materials in the cabin + more wood / alu trims.
