You could've gotten the exact same picture from this forum too! It was brought up a few months back. It's unlikely that the facelift will resemble anything like that.

options include:
cold weather package/ convenience package/premium sound package/ sport package/sunshades/Navigation/ V3 cradle/ OE 166 wheels/M-tech upgrade/M rear spoiler/ racemesh m-tech grill/racemesh kidney grills/M5 mirrors/M5 steering wheel/ HID fog light conversion/ M5 SMG paddles
I think it looks pretty cool... 
they captured the original designs and kind of beefed up the look.

. I am deciding to get either the new X5 and 535i for next year and if the 5 is gonna look like that i will for sure get the new X5. Hopefully it wont look that much differ from the current one, but i am excited for twin turbo 
thanks

i like the e60s way more than that...
sometimes you gotta just stick to the original that came before.. its better..thats just my opinion, but it applies to only certain things..

^ nice car pinquhk, yea i was thinking about getting current 530 when i saw that pic, but i'm still hoping the 535 will not look like that 
or i will most likely end up getting the new x5 which is also a very nice car and will prolly get the twin turbo 6 as well
