Pulled the Trigger

Dargo72 · 12-14-2018, 04:22 AM

My X5 is at the dealer. I expect to pick it up on Monday. the dealer mentioned that they need to plug it in and check if there are any recall items needing correction. Might push the pickup to Tuesday but he will let me know.

Really looking forward to drive the 50i as I did not get a chance to test drive one, only the 40i, which was pretty nice.

Hopefully, I will not have any crazy issues, or annoyances. We'll see but can't wait to see how the V8 is.

Picked up my X5 50i on Tuesday and am loving it. Just getting used to all the options and settings, some of which I still don't know exactly what they do, but wow this thing is a beast.

I really like the different modes as they really turn the car into two different vehicles. Comfort is very plush, while Sport just wakes everything up. The V8 is powerful and sounds great.

Going to get paint correction and ceramic coating in January and just looking forward to simply getting more used to the car. It is truly awesome.

I will now attempt to add some pictures. (and I noticed my rear seats are not very wrinkly, as many have found

)

Did you get any already?

I think ivory white is ideal and good match for 4KT
