I don't know about you guys, but I really enjoy this part of the car hunt. You know, looking stuff up, asking around, finding out the individual quirks / good points about the car, etc. It's kinda like the honeymoon period.

Then after you've got your car, it abruptly ends (at least this has been my experience with my two previous cars.) From what I've been reading and finding out though, it looks as though the honeymoon just goes on for the duration that you own the X5!
