bmw.com has configurator online now. The 20" Y spokes make it look much better.

Pretty sad when the key is more interesting than the car.

Actually, thats not fair. I do find the interior nice. Its not particularly exciting, but it is far more interesting than the E70's. The interior designers did a nice job.

Agree! There are no longer bold accents. I like my 2011 much better. I'll put the miles on her and await the next redesign. 2018 maybe?

The front bumper on the M Sport resembles a person whose lips are being pulled wide. Weird. :-/

IMO the E70 MSport is the best looking SUVs on the market by far. Every time i see one with the wide fenders and 20s - I go .

The new F15 has an awesome interior.
The exterior looks soft and incoherent as a design even in Msport trim. The rear especially is a disaster.

F15 still looks better than the fugly ML though.

Not a fan. Wheels look too small...and the whole shape just looks "off" somehow

I was speaking more of the new shape/design than the stripes. When I get a new car I want every part of it to feel new/upgraded, and it'd be a bit of a disappointment to have a key identical to my e90.

BMW is really diluting the M Brand by slapping an M badge on everything. Having a true M car meant something in the past.

They will definitely sell more cars but not sure this is the right direction from an enthusiast's point of view
