Three years from now what you see as ugly will be considered modern.

On a less controversial note: have you noticed the new cockpit? It'll come next year not just in the X7, but also in X5, 8, and even 3. And I'll be surprised if 7 doesn't get it at LCI in early '19.
This, exactly.

New cockpits will have that crazy slanted iDrive? Looks evolutionary to me. Biggest change was the floating screen in the F30 intro'd in 2011. Everything since has just been a variation on this theme.
