>>Forgive me if this observation has been made before, but if BMW's
Motorsport division produces a go-fast version of the new X5 SUV, might
it not incur some interesting naming issues?

Well, the M version of the Z3 is the Z3M or the M coupe, so maybe they'll
call the SUV the X5M.  Of course, since they call their 2.5 liter sedan the
323i, and they call the new 2.5 liter Z3 the Z3 2.3, who knows WHAT they'll
call the SUV?  

And since it's an SUV, who cares?
