My ideal vehicle would be a 535T, BMW Individual (with M5 extended leather), rwd, with the twin-turbo 3.0, manual trans, and M Sport kit (looking just like the M5), plus an XEDE, and with the roof rails added back on to carry the bikes. Can't convince my wife, but she has agreed to a 2007 X3.

Can't justify an M5 based on fuel consumption and overabundance of electronics, but the look is fantastic.
Hopefully Americans will finally get sick of the Suburbans, Hummers, and Expeditions of this world. AWD wagons are so much more practical.
