Could they sell X4 on updated models?

So no, I wouldn't buy into it. Further, the game looking pretty isn't the point of the game - that's just the frosting on the cake. The content is the cake, and that's what sells xpacs.
Mmm, I don't entirely agree with this. Eventually, I think that WoW
will
have to do some graphics updates in order to stay competitive. Eventually the "WoW killer" will come along, and in order to remain in the fight WoW will have to evolve to challenge it - and that will likely include significant graphic improvements.
Currently, WoW is surfing along on its popularity with graphics that, while not comparable to many other games on the market, are not horrible in any sense of the word. But that will only last so long.
As for paying an expansion solely to get updated skins? No. I
might
pay for a mini-expansion (micro-transactions
*shudder
), but not $40-50 for updated character models alone.

I think if we were getting model updates this expansion we would know by now.
The expansion isn't even in open beta yet. There is still a LOT of work to be done, and I'm sure there is a lot that we don't know at this point in time. It might happen, it might not, but it's definitely a possibility.

To make it this expansion would be a huge shocker,imo.
I agree, people have been complaining about low-poly and low-res player models ever since Burning Crusade. If they had plans to update all of the race models and textures they would have said it months ago, even if it never actually made it to the expansion.
