What would like to see in the Next X4...?

Hi
There is an ongoing thread here if Wishes on next X3 here --->>> http://x3.xbimmers.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1015499

However given differences in car would like to see
1) rear wiper
2) grab handles
3) Dual exhaust
4) Air suspension
5) bigger differentiation in interior to X3

Other thoughts?

6. Quad Exhaust, at least optional. I find the X4 & X6 at a disadvantage of being an SAV without a rear wiper.

Nappa Leather needs to be an option.

7. Height adjustable suspension (Similar to Audi Allroad).
8. EDC as standard with M-sport Package
9. Wider stance (Present X4 looks narrow)
10. Engines should automatically have 10% higher output than X3 (have MPPK as Std.)
11. Panoramic Roof
12. Space Grey Color

Frameless windows.

BMW Individual leather dash trim.

To be a killjoy I think the panoramic roof won't work with the design of the car. Rear wiper is equally pointless given the limited visibility to begin with and would have a negative aesthetic effect. The exhaust will always depend on the engine choice and you can mod of you're that keen on it. Likely the M40i will have the split poo chutes.

You might find that this is a regional issue where you live, perhaps based on legislation. It's available on the X4 in Australia.

Oh I get it now, you're referring to the fully automated parking when you're not in the car. I thought you meant the parallel parking assist.

Give it a few years to filter down.

Bigger gas tank. Despite its higher fuel economy rating it seems to eat gas quite a bit faster than my old G37 Coupe, and the tank is about the same size. And no, I don't want to drive around in grandma EcoPro mode.

A simple tow hitch receiver option would be a good thing since it's advertised as an "Activity" vehicle.
