Isle of Man Green 2024 X5M LCI (Updated photos)

Hi Guys,
So I finally picked up my F95 LCI after a long, long wait and a hard decision after trading in my 2023 740i.
I simply love it. I wasn't sure about the color combination, let alone the green itself on such a big car, but it ticks all the boxes and definitely stands out in the crowd.
Not that it matters, but it's the first one in the country and probably in the region (UAE - Dubai), so that makes it extra special to me!

PS. Updated the pics after a nice photoshoot

Please meet: The Hulk.

Congratulations! Truly a special color that really elevates this already amazing car. Please update us on how you like iD8 coming from iD7.

Side note: others have already gotten their IOMG X5Ms delivered quite a bit ago

Congrats! You are going to love it. I received my IOMG back in April (Texas). It's amazing...especially after break-in service.

Thankyou. I love how the color turns heads wherever I go.
In essense ID8 is almost identical to ID8. the main change for me was in the main dashboard, but the menu settings from within are identical.
Apologies on not making it clear, I meant in our region (Middle East)

Thanks you! I'm tempted to drive it a bit extra just to get the break-in service over with.
Side question: Have you noticed any delays at start-up? I've noticed that as opposed to my 2017 X6M and i'm wondering if that's to do with the hybrid system?

Yeah, there is a few second delay when starting up (after pushing the button). I suspect it does have to do with the hybrid system. Other than that, I haven't noticed the hybrid system being too much of a hindrance to things....especially when compared to the XM where the hybrid setup causes some lag while driving.

Its a beautiful combo....but taking the photos in the dark like you did is a waste of time and does it an injustice. Just look at RockDoc's pic....night and day. "no pun"

With a tight work schedule it was the only time I had, but promise I'll get some day light fancy shots

Took these photos on King St (Charleston SC). Personally I feel that IOMG looks better on the SAV/SAC (X5/X6/XM) over the M3/M4.

Thanks! Best thing after break-in was just being able to use the full rev range and push it hard. Had it almost a year now and it continues to be great.
