Wonder if the DPC system will be optional on X5 too?

Saw a version of in Oberschleissheim the the other day, it had the same lights as the X6, they looked the same. The mule was not so disguised, just tape around the sites and the front nose.
Back had four exhausts on show, 2 either side. But when checked, 2 of the holes were blanked so was the standard 1 each side in reality

Expect to see a xdrive50i with the 4.4 Twin Turbo.

As long as it isn’t the GT nose, I’m fine with it. Kinda looks like a fat e46 nose, which isn’t as bad as it sounds.

Is that image for real!? I’d think that the X5 wouldn’t just be a photo copy of the X6. The X6 must stand out.

To me, the X6 front end isn’t nesseseraly better on the X5 (although it is a beautifull design), I quite like the current X5 nose. It’s a little more subtle -wich I think it must be, and its got an identity of its own.

Interesting move this…
