I live in northern california and we just picked up a 4.8i X5. I have pictures but I haven't uploaded them. I didnt find it too difficult to get one, I didnt pre-order the vehicle or anything....I just called last week, found out when it was coming and bought it when it came in. anyways, it drives nice. It's fully loaded and we tried out the park assist camera...it's not bad but it's going to take a little getting used to and to able to trust it.

Anyways, if anyone has questions about the 4.8i let me know. We drove it home (about 100 miles from the dealership where we got it at) and it drove pretty damn well on the freeway.

Specs: everything but ventilated seats. we have the 20's on them, and all the packages.
