As we’ve been seeing lately through spy photos, BMW has been refreshing the looks of their lineup. The BMW X5 is the latest to be caught in our crosshairs.

We see here that the air intakes are on the front are different, as well as foglight placement. The rear bumper has been reshaped, too, as we can see from the side-by-side photo in this gallery. The exhaust tips also have a new shape.

See the new look of the BMW X5 in the gallery above.

Lotus has released U.S. pricing for the 2010 Evora. And the magic number is:

$73,500.

Not bad for a 2+2, mid-engine Lotus with a 276-horsepower, 3.5-liter V-6, delivering upwards of 30 miles per gallon highway.

The 2010 Lotus Evora will go on sale in the U.S. during the first quarter of next year. In the meantime, two Evoras are traveling to dealerships across the country for open houses (details follow in the press release).

See it in the above gallery, or scroll down for the press release from Lotus.
