M Roadster is in the shop, so they gave me...

[Spidey]

... a X5 [headbang]

This truck is really nice... Brand new, only 800 miles and still has the new car smell. It's the 3.2, silver, with grey leather and a light wood grain. Absolutely beautiful interior... enough bells and whistles to even satisfy my geeky ass... and on top of that... It drives like a DREAM!

I should have it a few days, so I'll give a more detailed report later.

Alright, very lucky. I normally get a 3-Series.

 

[MrElussive]

Good deal! The X5 is definitely a very nice vehicle, drives extremely well for a SUV.

Alright, very lucky. Normally BMW of Austin gives me a 3-Series.

tom, they usually give me a 3 series too. they were happy to give me the X5 though, all i really had to do was ask. ...and boy am i glad i did. i'm lovin this truck!

a bunch of things actually... my top has been acting up so they are looking at that, getting new ///M badge in the back ( mine was starting to look faded), allignment ( damn potholes! ), and i'm finnaly getting around to re-finishing the wheels (silver again, lol). it's going to look great when i get it back... i'm so excited.

What's with those brown floor mats!?!

My aunt has that exact same X5...i was driving it around Stamford over Thankgiving. That's one mean truck. It eats potholes for breakfast!

i recently took my parents' 4.4 out for a ride out of town. i couldn't believe i was driving a 3 ton truck.. it was rock solid, and even at 90mph, you could barely tell it was going that fast.

amazing what bmw does w/ their rides!

exactly how i felt... i was blown away by how smooth it felt as speeds. even with the smaller engine, it had plenty of power to get up and do what i needed it to do. it was a sad day tuesday when i had to turn it in... but then i got my roadster back, so i was happy again.
