My Ride: 2008 Silverstone II E60 M5 2012 E70 AW X5 50i Sport w/ LCI Aero Kit and Rocker Panels
With the X5M on the verge of being released (My dealer is taking deposits), I'm wondering if I would fulfill the pleasure I currently get, by owning the best of both worlds... Aside from one less car payment I would have each month, I've been wondering if I would still get the satisfaction of the "M" experience while still having a BMW "Truck".
My one concern would be two things...
1) Does Eloy have a kit ready for this car?
2) Would the "Pulleys" story work with the wife again?
3) Who wants my R10's? LOL!!!!
Wait, that's 3 things... Ah, nevermind. Hahahaha!
Glad to be back ladies. Now, let's bring this forum back to the way it used to be a couple of years ago.

Welcome back C Man! Yeah it has been quiet around here.
I am licking my chops @ the X6m or wait for F10 M5 which is 18 mos away.
FYI-Lease #'s on X6m 36mos 52%res (15kmi) .0025 MF.
Also considering 750i or X6 50i. I'm confused!

I said X5M, not X6M. The X6 looks like the Pontiac Aztec. I can't roll in something that looks like that.

T - How's the C63? Any more recent, updated pix? BTW - Got around to finally playing a few rounds with the MP-62's. Love them!
C63 is great. Went on a drive with all the boys on sunday. Even ran against a modded M5 and beat him
by 1/2 car. The tune really helps on this car but it's still not a BMW (handling wise).
I should have my wheels and CF parts within 2 weeks so i will post pics later.
