No doubt it, it will continue to sell like hot cakes. Plenty of demand out there.

Don't take this the wrong way, but I think you should just look at a different car all together.

I’ve been reading reviews and it seems like no one has run into cooling issues on the track. Say what you will about the design but that functionality has been proven!

I have been seeing a lot of the LCI X5s around Austin, the headlights remind me of crossed eyes. They just seem off, not a fan of the DRL signature change at all.

This looks like a downgrade because the head light housing is much less flatering and much more mazda vibes.

Headlights look like shit. Glad I got my 2023 with lasers. Just wish I had bought a model year before without the massive slab screen.

Judging by the very clear sentiment on the grille staying the same, ADRO and Vorsteiner will continue to make a mint selling bumpers and grills. Great day to be them!
In my opinion, this'll be one of the first //M cars that people reverse-retrofit (is that right?) the non-LCI lights ONTO the LCI, since these snakey ones are awful.

Keeping in mind the ADRO bumper isn't a retrofit, it's a direct replacement and redesign: I'm starting to see more ADRO M3s than stock M3s online and around California, leading me to believe people will continue to either swap out their grille for a Vorsteiner or replace their entire bumper via ADRO. That's all I was saying; and I was talking about retrofitting the standard or laser headlights from a non-LCI to replace these new snake-eyes.

All of whose dreams? The few who can't move on. The grills are here to stay.

That is against German TUV regulations and could result in massive penalties... if there is a power increase it has to be proven... no German company is playing games by fudging numbers since Dieselgate.

I am sure they will grow on us all. Kind of like the grill gate. Lol. Or some of us with ID7 to ID8. I do prefer my lasers though. They just complete the car. I have been looking at the X5 M60 and the front end has not grown on me yet, and I hate that they removed the back doors touch capacitive sensors to lock and unlock, all while raising the price. Times we are in, I get it, but ya, the headlights are IMO a step back. Has to be parts/delays causing the change.

I’ll admit, I had a car with iDrive 7 and now have iDrive 8 and it has grown on me immensely… I couldn’t go back (and when I want a true analog experience, I jump in my e92 😅
