Is it me or this look like Navigator copy?

They're both big SUVs with lots of chrome, but I think the Navigator is a bit different. Much boxier and with different styling elements.
On the other hand, if people believe this BMW looks like the Lincoln, that's a good thing, because the Navigator is the one to beat in this segment.

Yeah, Navigator is boxier, but big grill in the front and big rear lights with 'chrome' plastic stripe.

Nothing like a navigator

10 times more uglier than Navigator.

Not only that, it hardly looks like a BMW to start with. It looks like they slapped a Hofmeister Kink and an ugly nose on a Mercedes-Benz body.

I think that's more due to it being an SUV. There's only so much you can do to make a box look different, especially if it's a big 7-seater box.

Well, BMW has done a pretty good job with their other SUVs, especially the latest X5. They took that, made the kidney grilles bigger, but not as monstrously large as we see on the X7, and the whole thing actually looks like a BMW.

The X7's grille should have been made to look more like that of the smaller X5, it's a good medium for the design.
