The Idea from BMW seem to fine,but why did they have to link the 5 series tag to it.They should have named/ positioned it into a completely new territory.

I'm not sure why BMW seems to think its X6 design is a success. I just hope we don't see the day when this design progresses onto 7 series as well!

Totally have to agree with you on that! The X6 is rubbish, in my opinion. But taking the design up to other cars is not the best way to go.

Did BM hire the guy/team that designed Ssangyong Actyon?

Only one word...this thing SUCKS!! Oh!! I miss Bangle....

Nitronium · 23rd May 2009, 15:05

If i'm right this was conceptualized while Bangle was still with BMW

It looks too similar to X6 and clearly BMW has started looking boring bu turning into their old design philosphy of progressive designs . At the moment the Mercs are going bangle in a good way ie., impressive , fresh and classy(subjective) .
PS : Compared to the C-class and Audi A4 , the 3 series looks totally outdated.

Last weekend I visited the BMW Musium come showroom in Munich. There I saw this 530d Turismo.

Few pics.

Check the door rims, nice thought.

pawan_pullarwar · 19th March 2010, 12:34

I saw it first time in any car. Boot opens in two way.

The Skoda Superb's boot mechanism too works the same way.
