New 5 series fighter jet shift knob....and Facelift

New X5 automatic control. this is just a digital way of controling the automatic, just like the 7 series uses as a horizontal stock, but this is vertical, bulkier, and in the center, but none the less, the same.

SMG transmission selector are different and do not have a parking control

Will the X5 have the faster automatic transmission like the 335?

You know, I like my E90 and I would buy an E90 M3 if they made one, but otherwise no other BMW interests me. The 5 is ugly, the 7 too limo, the X3 hideous, the X5 pointless and the 6 only suitable for rappers. Oh and the 1 is too small

Out of all, I agree that the 3 is the best. But each one serves more purposes. And for their category, they are still the better of the competition.

I drive an X5 4.8is and I would not consider it pointless. It spanks your 330i too... All in good fun tho...

Fair point.

I had forgotten about the 4.8is, I would add that to my acceptable list. I would also add the previous generation M5.

I have a problem with ugly cars.
