Hi Everyone,
I've been away from the forums for some time now.
I recently moved from South Africa to the USA, and unfortunately had to leave my beloved 550i behind.
Firstly it is a right hand drive and secondly not cost effective to ship over here.

Had the launch of the F10 not been so close I would have been straight back into a 550i. Best car I ever owned by far.

So after driving both the X5 and X6 it was an easy choice for me.
BMW really got the dynamics and driving position absolutely right in the X6 and I am loving it.

Congrats on your new ride :thumbsup: .

+1

Congrats and enjoy the change. Will you miss the Springboks as much as your 550? :D

Congrats on the new ride!

Welcome back and congrats on the new ride

That 550i of yours looked great with the anodized M172s, but good to hear you're enjoying the X6 :)
Any mod plans with the X6?

I saw the M X6 at the dealer the other day. The look of the X6 has definitely grown on me, and the performance numbers of the M version are pretty impressive. Enjoy your new car.

Thanks for the comments guys. :thumbsup:
No doubt the mod bug will bite soon. Already looking at changing the exhaust tips and kidney grilles.

I detailed the car for the first time today and realised how easy the chrome shadow 172's were to maintain on my E60.
Will have to investigate this option for the X6 also.

Great looking car, first thing i would do is lower it and make it look perfect

Congrats on the new ride! :thumbsup:

i thought people were gonna attack you for getting an X6. i LOVE the X6 though.

I suppose, if you had to get an X6, yours is one of the best possible color combos :thumbsup: Nice ride tho, congrats and N-joy!

Welcome back! X6 is definitely a cool ride. The styling has started to grow on me as well. Congrats!

Congrats...Nice car!! :thumbsup:

congrats on the new x6 :thumbsup:

very nice selection...as long as its a Bimmer you are safe.....tough to let go of that 550 though.. heart wrenching i would venture.

LOVE THE X6.

Would be my next car :) in alpine white though :)

X6 growing on me also. My lease is due first week of November. I really want to get out of e60 after leasing 3 of them already. I just dont feel like leasing another e60. The F10 is not here when i need it :)

right now it is between x5 or x6.
