I suppose. I had only been to florida about 4 times in my life prior to moving here.
I had ordered the X5 before moving here. It was nice in JANUARY of 09 cause the car was getting a lot of attn, and ppl asking what year it was. But by the time May rolled around, I started seeing more and more of them ... and didn't see many Audi Q7s or Jaguar XF's at all. When I drove to ATL it was SICK. Ppl were turning thier heads and breaking thier necks just to look. I only saw 1 (ONE) E70 X5 the whole time I was there.
So, eventhough I've known about European modding (being British myself), I only just decided to actually mod my X5 with Lumma ... just because I want my car to look different in the crowd, not identical. Funny thing is, I'm starting to see other X5s with similar mods, including the blacked out taillights with the white strip (another European mod idea). My friend has seen a white ACS modded X5, and I've seen pictures of an ACS X6 in Miami (CEC Wheels does ACS), but I've not seen any truly modded X5s on the roads.
