As for Adaptive Drive, I couldn't really discern much of a difference on my current X5 so I decided to pass. I have 21" OEM 239s that I will use for the summer.
I saved some over the one I have although I added Premium Sound. I am looking forward to the new iDrive, autotailgate and back-up camera (even if it isn't perfect).

Ah, good point. I will make sure to be sure to use my nonpolarzied glasses in the X5 for the HUD. While I could live with the sports seats, my wife really preferred the comfort seats, and it will be be her car, so. . . .
I hope someone at BMW had enough sense to improve the backup camera, but I'm not holding my breath. If not, surely there some smart
entrepreneur or company is out who will offer everyone a fix for the OEM version.
