Thanks Alpine. This does help. I still have couple of more weeks before placing the order, so I am paying close attention on how both white and black X5s handle snow, post-snow and after-the-rain. I literally change my mind daily! There are times when white really strikes (especially on M-Sport without black trim), and then there are times when I see streaks of dirt on white surface and it really turns me off.
I totally see your point how black trim spoils the white paint, but since it will be a lease, I dont feel like spending money repainting the trim. And yes, I will be getting it fully loaded with sports, 20" wheels and AD, and so far I am 60% toward SB...
