This is not the BMW I grew to admire and respect.

This thing is a bloated pig. It looks like a Volvo and a Tahoe mated and gave birth.

If BMW wanted to make a crossover, to be "all trendy, 'n that," they could at least have kept it clean and light.

That second pic really does wonders in capturing the ug in how ugly it really is.

Looks 10x better than an X5 to be honest. The X5 is freakin' ugly as sin, no offense to X5 owners out there.

That 3 looks way better.

Seriously, what's with all the unnecessary appendages on the beemer? It's all too much. Opposite of clean and unobtrusive....

I could use another epitaph, but I won't.

To be honest, I hated it until I saw it in person.. Now I really like it. I wouldn't spend the money on it, but it is way better looking than the X5 (and my parents own one of those), and just seriously makes a statement.

To each their own, I guess. I must have no taste because I like the 135 too
