Just got the production number, so unsure of the build week yet.

I went back and forth on the color combo. First thought of tartufo and brown metallic ash trim, but after seeing some of the pictures, I changed my mind.

The last time I had an X5 was back when I got an E70 around 2008, which was actually my first BMW. Then got three 5 Series in a row and was ready for a change. Drove the M50 at the UDE event and knew I needed that V8 power back. While disappointed that I can't do another European delivery, and not even bothering with a PCD this year, still very excited and can't wait.

Great build. Did you consider the Dynamic Handling Package? I find it makes a big difference in the handling. Also, might want to consider the $150 compact spare. I mistakenly didn't order one and have big regrets because it's about $900 to add afterwards.
