Carbon fiber roof, amen to that! We do not want any jumbo size moonroof/sunroof overheads. Keep it lighter and stronger for our taste. Also some M side rearview mirrors. Really cool video / commercial for the new X4. Liked the music and the more aggressive vibe, about time. Liked everything besides for the hipster dude, lol. |

Stunning
Never thought I'd say this about an X4, but this is stunning!
I hated the previous X4 and X6. The X2 is pretty odd looking too (in a different way than the X6). But this is gorgeous, both the front and the rear. It looks better to me than a Macan, which I also like a lot. Hopefully this is a return to pretty looking BMWs. Great job Bavaria! |

The Camry/Corolla are two of the leading mid-size economy sedans in the country, on account of their reliability, practicality and affordability. So yes - I think the appeal of the segment is fairly obvious. Styling is not a driving force at that end of the market. The x4 is neither practical or affordable (by the standards of most of the population) - it's certainly not unreasonable to think BMW should deliver a design that's not as polarizing as that of the x4. Whether you like it or don't, it's indisputably very divisive.

The only cars I never understood were the GTs because it seems like the X4 and X6 filled that niche... Last edited by Mako; 02-15-2018 at 11:03 PM.. |

I agree that the GTs are a waste of space... I’ve only ever seen one or two, they are effectively an uglier version of the X4/X6 |

Or picking the M Sport which comes with black grille slats like the X3 M Sport does.
Additionally blacking out the grille's chrome outline as well might not be the best idea though, as that will probably only emphasize the gaping nostrils effect. Last edited by advantage20; 02-16-2018 at 12:17 PM.. |

I guarantee you when the new 4 series GC M40i comes out it will be similar in price to the x4 M40i, Within $1,000 in the US at least. |

Maybe, but I believe my original comment was a reply to the suggestion that X4 is similarly priced to 3 series, which simply isn’t right... Even the current 440i is £45,490... an M440i couldn’t possibly be any more than £49k... X4 M40i will be £55k so still a big gap! M340i will be no more than £46k I guarantee...

How big is it compared to the current X4? Looks much larger in the photos. Anyone know?

I have been for the last 4 years a big critic of BMW design, but I think this is a win for them. It no longer looks like a baby X6. It looks sleek, but it could be more aggressive. Overall, I would buy it.
