Talk:BMW X5

[edit] 2004 Refresh
I find the terminology used in this section to be very confusing. For example, the following sentence: "exterior glass went from a "dotted" pattern to a cleaner one of "lines"."
What does this mean?? Davez621 10:47, 14 December 2005 (UTC)
This article needs updating--I will be glad to do it. To above poster: they are talking about the tint fram around the windows.--Jpr18 16:04, 28 May 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Design
I think we should add the criticism about the design of the car. Some people think that it lost its masculine looks and some others say that it looks like Asian cars. Also, we can't skip the anti-Bangle people because they hate every model that Bangle's team designed. Deliogul 16:04, 7 August 2007 (UTC)
- It's just the archetypical anti-BMW. Although, really, Bangle&Co. have recently simply mutilated the spirit of what used to be the German sports sedan brand. Even cars like the new 3-series lack the old feeling. Looking for a great car for about 40 grand, I've caught myself looking at used E46 M3s, rather than new 335s, even despite the fact that they are comparably fast and loaded. Like the American big three, BMW looks to be going down the road where its die-hard fans will be buying and restoring old icons and disregarding anything new to come off the assembly lines. Pity. However, for that same reason, criticism of Bangle hardly fits here, just like "it's nothing close to what they made in '69" doesn't belong on new Ford or GM models' pages. It's simply a given... 128.195.186.70 (talk) 10:52, 29 May 2008 (UTC)Adieu
