IMO, If before seeing the pic, one didn't understand the concept of "less is more," one most certainly should now. I hope the maker of those mods doesn't really expect someone to apply them all to the same vehicle. Individually, there are some nice elements; all together they are too too much. The interior would have been fine had the cross stitching not been there; carrying the seats' vertical stripe theme through to the head rest would have been enough. The exterior would be better without the black stripe along the lower body and the branding/labeling.

I love that on the news page the link to this thread says "needs more vents."

Also, different wheels on each side of the car is such a pet peeve if mine. Just pick a set of 4!

Never noticed that the whole dash in the new x5 is almost exactly like the 6 series.

LOL clr x5 rs....the name says it all...complicated, overdone, stupidity, and I agree this only appeals to russians and arabs. The m sport kit on the x5 plus some wheels and there is a real winner!

Yeah, you are right, I was going by memory instead of looking at a picture.

They do look similar though.

The X5 dash is nothing like the 6-series IMO...?

The 6 is amazing inside and the vertical swoosh that ties in the upper section with the centre console is what makes it great - so many nice flowing lines!

Werd.

I think it just looks awful since its white. If it was all black (please no tinted lights though) to decontrast some of the vents, it would look awesome.

It looks exactly like the f30 interior. Are we all getting the same interior too now??

Diamond stitching looks nice. Everything else needs to go back to the drawing board.

I agree with this

I think I mod my cars pretty cleanly but I like the wide body, front / rear bumpers and the wheels. Hood is also nice.

Interior has cool elements but OTT generally

In black it would look more subtle
