Meh, I think it more or less is the same 7 as always but I actually like the current model's lines more than this one here.

Backseat center console idrive control..wow...interior still doesn't make up for the exterior short-comings IMO....

Changes are too subtle. Grills too large. Not a great looking car. Sometimes cars grow on you...this one might not!

I am already looking forward to the LCI refresh of the front end... :(

IMHO There are probably a number of styling goofs ... one in particular caught my eye (or rather poked me in the eye)!

Aside from the Mack truck sized BMW grills ... it's the toooooo pronounced LED's in the headlamp assembly.

I know everyone wants to follow Audi's lead with LED's for everything but when I spend six figures for a car I don't want the front end shouting - LOOK at my LEDs whahooooo.

I also feel they detract will from the unique headlamp halo - a feature that should be promoted. So, IMHO, they could have provided the benefit of LED lighting w/o making them look like aftermarket add-ons!
