I tell you that tobacco pic above is so nice looking and it really enhances the red wood trim on the dash. I swear I look at this interior pic of the new X5 at least once a day. I want that interior on my next BMW, love the way the Nav intergrates into the dash.

I doubt though I can afford the V8 with all the options I want so it leaves me with the inline 6, I'm just concerned that even with the increase in hp with it being close to 5000lbs will it be slugish? I'm use to my very peppy 3 series.
