From what I could learn, there will be double-digit miles on the car. Anyone have info about this???

how did you find out that they are using your exact car for the testing? i think someone said something about them choosing a vehicle at random or something... i heard ALL X5/X6 models will be held at the VPC until the emissions approvals come in...
