Hey. BMW designers. About those ever-larger "kidney" grilles.

Let the Ford Edsel be your warning from history:

Now, that's a promising looking medium SUV.

Let's hope the nose is more like the 2 Series/M2 or current 5 series vs the lovely 3 series platypus.

I would also consider replacing my SQ5 with this as well. Really miss my E90 M3. I am aching to get back into a 6MT.

If that were true why has there been M3 and M5 wagons in Europe? You're already producing them, just make it available to whomever wants one stateside. I think BMW would be surprised.

It would be the fastest ///M @ 700lbs less than the X5M w. AWD. Not likely unfortunately but would be awesome.

I was sure hoping it would be the first "M" with a J1772 plug on it. I guess it could still be possible but they usually put "hybrid test vehicle" on the PHEV's, even in camo.

Well if you're serious Scott, I'll have an X1M as soon as you can make one. Or even an M-Sport. Just something other than that little 4-banger.

Honestly of all the M suvs, this is the one they should make. This better be a real M, not something like the X4 M40i. S63 would be nice, since the GLC63 is coming with the 4.0L V8tt.

The RS6 Avant and AMG E63 wagon beg to differ. They may not sell in huge volumes, but enough for there to be a business case for VAG & MB to make them.

I'd trade my F80 M3 in for a significant loss if they made a wagon variant of it, particularly with AWD. S55 in a wagon with AWD? Take my money!

X1 and X2 M Performance will be coming soon. However, they will still use an I4. Don't expect any engine with more cylinders than that to find its way into a UKL vehicle.
