Here are 3 examples of Imola Red e53 X5's for sale:

1. BMW 2006 X5 4.8is Red

2. 2004 BMW X5 4.8is Imola Red

3. 2006 BMW X5 4.4i Sport !!!!
Actually I've thought about that. There was a very low mile 2006 model at BMW of Bel Air that I let get by. A little pricey but for the miles it really wasn't a bad deal at all. I kind of kick myself for that.

I do like the newer '11 and later models that have the 35i engine rather than the older non turbo 3.0 models like I had.

I'm keeping my eye open for an '05 or '06 model with the 4.4 engine in Imola Red, if I find another one without a ton of miles on it and a good service history I'll probably jump on it.
