RE: the roof rails, I totally agree! I too will probably go with the low profile black roof rails. However, I will install them after delivery so that I can retain the factory painted roof rail caps (had this problem with my Rover HSE).
Also, did you notice the blue X5M has some type of black film on the kick panels. That might be a nice option as the painted surface will get trashed by passanger feet and/or daily use.
I'm dying to see a picture of the X5 ///M swing out trailer hitch ball. A trailer hitch will be a must for the race car.
Also, regarding the tires. Once these stocks are worn I will probably swap to the Michelin Diamaris tires from my 4.8is. Even though they wear quickly, I get the best response from them in high-speed mountain roads. Also the optional space saver spare will be a must to eliminate the run-flats.

The black film is on the current X5 M Sport model. It is a black strip which is listed as paint protector under the part # and it also works as a grip while getting in and out. I have never actually stepped on it because I don't want the side skirt to fall off.
