I also ordered on the individual ash trim. That picture does look a little on the tan/brown tones. I hope it's just lighting and pic quality, I was not expecting that.

On their webpage it looks darker, more greyish like, that's deceiving

With a tiny bit more effort on your part, you could have pushed the price above $100k. Where is your competitive spirit!

Well they run flat, so less chance of getting stranded. I would still get the spare tire though.

Another reason, the stiffer sidewalls are useful if the car is parked most of the time.

As a fellow Tartufo owner, I can say the OP’s pic of the interior is almost exactly the color of Tartufo in person. The pics I posted in this thread shows more orange, which it is not in person.

Just picked the beast up..Wow!!! The Tartufo definetly has orange in it. Reminds me of a football. It’s nice, but not everyone will like it. I will post some pics, but the pics above are fairly accurate, IMO.

I noticed that my car won’t play the music I had on a portable Hard drive. I tried plugging the hard drive into the USB and USBc ports, neither worked. It worked fine in my 550. I tried a USB dongle with FLAC files and the car played those just fine..weird..

Yeah the Tartufo seems to look really different depending on the lighting. I like it. And who doesn’t like Foooootball!
Now ya wanna see some orange, get yourself some Cognac!

Some pics. Car drives like a dream. Virtually no body rolls in hard cornering. I’m a little unclear on how dynamic handling package works; I think it is constantly on in the background, but maybe someone can enlighten me? Other things I’m unclear on:
1. So far remote 3D view is not working, the app tells me to turn it on in the vehicle, but I’ve already done that. Remote start from the app works fine.
2. What is the adaptive button? It’s below the sports suspension button. The manual doesn’t say much, and with DHP, not sure if it is applicable to my car.
3. Has anyone had success with getting the car to recognize a portable hard drive? My 550 does.
4. I was able to lower the volume of the lock and unlock with BimmerCode, but could not turn off auto start stop. Get the message “can not read ecu “ or something like that.
5. Can you raise and lower the car? Air suspension?

Anyway, the new X5 is a fantastic vehicle. I will be taking it on the interstate for a couple of hundred miles today, and am anxious to see how the wind and road noise levels are, and how the active cruise compares to my Benz S560.

To the OP, looks like you didn't add the air suspension to this build, or at least I can't see the switches associated on the center console for them.

likely got the DHP over air which is ideal for handling.

You need to setup a profile and link it with your app. It should work after.

Looks amazing. The 50i is a beast on the road. The torque from 40mph tp 100mph+ is endless and wants to keep going. I am use to fast cars but damn, how impressive in a SUV this big. Mine was optioned out like yours except I got Mineral White and Coffee. I get mine next week. My dealer lets me drive their similarly equipped 50i M Sport when I like to keep me happy for the wait. Everytime I leave with a smile.

I plan on doing a very detailed video with exhaust notes, etc... There isnt many M-Sport exhaust 50i sound videos yet??? The sound is magical.

do you have some sort of VBox like Draggy to record a 0-60 launch? I want to see how it performs real life
