The new X5 doesn't have the Hideous Hood Cut Line (HHCL), so clearly BMW does know how to design around the pedestrian safety regulations. The 3, 5, 6, and 7 all suffer from HHCL, but the 3 is the worst because it looks more squared off. It won't be surprising if BMW fixes this on the next versions of these cars.
