+1, first pic reminds me of the X6, minus the 2-doors.

+1 more for the 1st pic. I like it...alot! Let's hope the front end will not look like a 1 series with high springs.

It could be a cool ride. But how many SUVs, SAVs, SACs, etc does the world need? We may have reached the saturation point already. On the otherhand, the trend is towards smaller ones, an X1 would sell better than an X7 today.

I would consider it as a 2nd vehicle. I like my X3 but its end-of-lease next April. Its getting behind the competition in styling and features. I'm not sure at this point what's next....

This is looking good but why are they making a X1 and X2???
X3 dose not sell well.
I bet they going to make a X7 later
