Hey look, a BMW Sidekick er X3. The X5 is already not that roomy, I can't imagine any sort of practicality out of an X3.
While I do think the concept of Bimmer SUVs is borderline sacriledge, I look at it as a positive thing for the general motoring public. Anything that gets people out of 3-ton lumbering mastadons and into something that more resembles a car is fine by me. Same reason I like the Subaru Outback and Audi Allroad. While I think it's pretty dumb to take a fine handling sportwagon and jack it up over truck tires, it keeps the soccer moms of the world in cars instead of trucks.
Oh, and I like the new 7 and Z4. :fawk:
