It's not a bad looking car other than that, and as the OP shows with some decent rims on it, it looks even better.
werd X-Line is a lot better I think.

A drop or thicker tire would do wonders. Not bad.

That dealership is beautiful. Hardwood floors that rotate. Nothing like that around me.

There is something wrong with the X4, aesthetically.

I think BMW should execute a recall immediatly and refund the money, before it is too late.

Wheel gap?! If you want no wheel gap you get a CAR and amazingly you can get one with xdrive if you need it! If you want utility/space then get an x5 or x3. The x4 and x6 are fugly and useless - a bad combination.

Agreed, I'm just stating that the tire looks to small. They should have upsized. Looks like they cheaped out and used sedan size tires. Even that 335i GT has beefier tires if you go back and look.

Have to agree. Was seriously considering this vehicle until I saw the front. I'm thinking it probably has incandescent bulbs too. Wake up BMW even KIAs have LED lights.

Looked at it in every color. Still is hideous.

Because the wheels on it are from another BMW model.


I am not a fan of the wheels.
From some angles they are ok but the fender gap is huge and really looks cartoonish.

The exhaust looks great.

Clearly this is all subjective.

Those wheels look terrible on that X4. I wonder if those guys over there realize that .
Alot has to do with offset, ride height and profile of the tires.

Msport looks fine as-is --> Wheels look great.

The Exhaust is not OEM. I think its Kelleners or some other German tuner that Abu Dhabi Motors are the dealer of, still fits perfectly i would say
wait until you sit inside the cheap 90's interior. An E46 3ser has a better quality interior. And having owned one and the current x3 I know what Im talking about

Not a macan s

With those wheels and quad exhaust it is still far from macan S. Maybe when x40 engines comes out it will be a better than macan option.
