I am cross posting this here,

I have to check X7 section to see what people thought of it, but the concept looks hideous.

Maybe it needs time to grow on us....

Two things can happen.
New X5 will be amazing, so old X5 price will drop like a rock, we can then grab some great deals, making us stay with BMW 3 more years despite outdated tech/interior/penny pinching, nickle and diming packaging.

New X5 will not be amazing, F15 demand will be there, we won't get a good deal, we'll go grab a Q7 with their idiotic decision of leaving Auto-Hold out of the nice car - it bugs me more than it should but it's not there - or we'll have to gamble with XC90 an it's heavily tech dependent operation and it's quirks.

Would I stay with X5? If I get a crazy deal on an msport, with better rims thrown in, air suspension, 3rd row and napa leather with 15% off MSRP, I might, just might stay with X5.. But it's still a tough VERY TOUGH call for me.

PS: Nothing drives like BMW. Not counting Porsche, it's vastly overpriced, so why not grab an X5 5.0 instead if 3rd row is not an issue.
