I was thinking at that time (after driving M-cars and brand new E46 328i sedan) why is BMW doing a SUV??!! 
The first BMW X5 4.4i I saw on the road was July 1999 (Titanium Silver)!!
Also, there was a special Neiman-Marcus edition X5 4.4i with special paint color (can't remember what it was) on sale for Dec 1999!! |
Twas referring to Scotty
