You mention being good in snow but it looks like you have the stock wheels and summer performance tires. Can you clarify this a bit more?

Not sure which gives me more anxiety the car parked so close to you or the tree under a sap dropping tree.

Beautiful X5M, one of my favorites.

I'm jelly. That thing looks so dark, like Darth Vader. I think the best picture of it is in the rain. I want an X6M version of what you have.

Looks incredible. I think it'd look even slicker with some carbon hood and trunk roundels to complete the dark theme. I had them on my Donnington F97 and will repeat on my Tanzanite F95.

I totally agree, in fact I've done the Xpel stealth and it dulls it out as opposed to this actual frozen pain having a rich almost like buff to it.
Currently all the Individual Colors available for the X5M and X6M.

I believe we've seen:

Urban Green (on F96)
Grigio Telesto Pearl (one for sale right now in California)
Frozen Black

Correction, we've also seen British Racing Green now which is for sale in Illinois.

Here are pictures of both.

Very cool. The Grigio I believe just sold last week to a buddies friend. The BRG would be cool to see! Thanks for sharing.

Oh buddy I'm the same way but we don't actually eat inside technically, I pop the trunk and they sit on the trunk floor. I'll stand outside the car eating!
