Thank you for sharing the pictures. We have almost the same spec on order. Are those seats the M sport seats or comfort? We ended up going with comfort as my wife didn't like the idea of a tighter seat. We are not going to be running any hot laps anytime soon.
Those are the multi-contour seats. I've had them in all my X5s and think it's a worthwhile upgrade. Seats are wonderfully comfortable.

Well, she's gone. Traded her in after 27,000 miles. There was nothing wrong per se with the G05, but nothing excited me either. An effortless, comfortable car that I rarely had to fill up because I never did more than ~35 miles a day on my commute.

But it was boring compared to my E70, and especially my F15, which for me was peak X5. I loved that thing. Still miss it.

No hate for the G05. It's a beautiful SUV. But it was time for something different.
