I just ordered a 2014 X5 35d -- Mineral Silver Metallic with Ivory White Nappa interior. I'm trading in my much beloved 2012 X5 35d, so I hope I made the right decision. My E70 was pretty well equipped just the way I wanted, but there are a few more bells and whistles on the new one that should make this one a keeper for a while (except, of course, that's what I said about the last one). I opted for, among other things, the Bang and Olufsen stereo.

My toughest decision was picking the exterior color -- none of the choices really got me excited (my current ride is Vermillion Red). I kind of liked Carbon Black, but I'm not getting the sport package, and that's a sport package only color.

Production is scheduled for the first week of March, so I should have it by the end of March. The excitement is building!
