Bye Bye Cayenne, Hello...

Say hello to our new family car:

BMW X5 M

Options:

Black Sapphire Metallic

Black Extended Merino Leather

M Wheels Double Spoke 300 M

Rearview Camera with Topview

Climate Comfort Windshield

Panorama Sunroof

Rear manual side window shades

Skibag

USB Audio Interface

Navigation System Professional with full Internet access and bluetooth interface

M Driver's Package (Vmax 275 kph instead of 250 kph)

BMW Individual High End Audiosystem

BMW Individual sun protection glass (rear, dark tinted)

The head-up display, optional in the US, is a standard option on German cars.

Delivery: end of March 2010, if I'm lucky February.

My wife keeps her M3 Cab DKG, so this is the perfect combo.

The photos are not showing our actual car but a similar one.

Re: Bye Bye Cayenne, Hello...

I like it! The colour scheme and the wheels look very nice.

I think you made a rational choice going for the X5 rather than the X6.

Don't forget to order the 30d badges

Re: Bye Bye Cayenne, Hello...

congrats RC... nice options.... and finally you pulled the trigger.

Does the X5M have the distronic option? (Abstandsregeltempomat) Its actually the only thing I would add if available.

The color combo is classic... Black is always nice looking and good for more understatment... I saw a dark grey X5 recently, and it looked sexy as well.

Good for you! Enjoy.

Now you have just enough time to make the move and pick it up at the factory and drive it at the performance center.

Re: Bye Bye Cayenne, Hello...

Thanks, guys. Couldn't resist, dealer gave a HUGE rebate, absolutely unbelievable. Maybe this is the reason why BMW sells so many X5/X6M, it was impossible to get a stock car from BMW and I really tried hard, incl. "special" relations.

Congratulations, Conny ! Maybe we should open our own Bavarian X5 M Club. Smiley

Funny story: my wife's friend owned a X5 two years ago, it was the 3.0 Diesel I think.

Before I continue the story, you need to know that she hates sportscars and asked my wife if I'm in a midlife crisis because I own a 997 Turbo.

Today I told her that we're getting the X5 M and with a smile on her face, she said "finally you start to be a serious and adult person." When I told her that this X5 has 555 HP and does 275 kph, she was under shock. She didn't even know that such a X5 exists. It was a fun day, today. Smiley

HaHa, thats actual a funny story.
As the X5M is the perefect understatement in person you will have a lot of funny days further I think Smiley

I asked about it, don't know about other countries but in Germany, it is NOT possible.

What IS possible is the 3 seater rear seating from the X5 for the X6, this IS possible.

Congratulations, beautifully specced and seems excellent for your purposes Smiley

Actually 4, I already have my deposit down for a X6M, but I am still deciding on color combo, either Carbon Black/Metallic Black with Red or black interior.

RC can always change the name a little to M-Rennteam, pretty sure no one is gonna noticed.
