Hello all:

Just like the title says, long time stalker, first time poster. Great site by the way. Thanks to all for the useful information posted; it definitely helped with my decision to buy this X5. So, I've been lurking on this forum for a couple of months while I searched for my perfect car. I finally found an almost fully loaded 2007 X5 with sport, premium, comfort access, rear entertainment, cold weather, and a bunch of other goodies I'm not even sure of yet as I'm still trying to take it all in, but for sure, this is one awesome car. Just sold a 2006 M Coupe for the X5 and couldn't be happier.

Since purchase (2 weeks ago today), I've tinted the front windows with 30% llumar film, lowered it with H&R front springs and custom rear links, and installed 22x10 forged Mint M100 Monobloc wheels in color match and machined finish. I'm extremely happy with the ride of the 22" wheels with Pirelli Scorpion Zero tires. It probably has something to do with the wheels being so light, but I feel like it rides better than the factory 20" wheels with Michelin Latitudes. Surprised for sure.

Soon to follow, AC Schnitzer front and rear add-on pieces. They just arrived today and will be installed next week. I will be color matching the fender flares and other black plastic pieces. Yes, pictures will follow.

Need some exhaust ideas besides Eisenmann and Remus, so I might try something custom.

Comments, suggestions, thoughts, observations, opinions??
