My only exterior gripes are:

1) The load rails on the roof are seemingly clunky. I wish they did flush load rails. Audi, Range Rover, Volvo, etc. have super flush rails, but BMW has these rails with notable gaps between the body and rail that look less sleek. Granted the Mbenz GLS63 has the same clunky rails, but it makes the side profile look "trucky". I'm really nit-picking, but aesthetically they diminish the athleticism of the vehicle.

2) Despite MPro blackout treament, there's a large chrome strip across the back of the vehicle which doesn't fit the large blacked out diffuser/lower bumper. They should've gone black chrome. I am going to black out the X7 and 60i logos (which humbly should be a factory inclusion if not option), but given the chrome strip is embedded in clear plastic, I can't really black that out. I think that was a style miss on an otherwise murdered out/blacked out vehicle. BMW could take some cues from other vendors (including Kia) on dark/night/black out packages.
