Congratulations! When we ordered our 05', there was a 2.5 and 3.0 motor choice. We got the 3.0 which is now less HP than current offering in the US. Certain features were available on the 3.0 that were not on the 2.5. Other options were standard on the 3.0 and extra charge on the 2.5. Do the on line build and see the difference in price. As an aside, since the suspension seems to be a topic of discussion. We have the so called "rough" earlier suspension. I really like it compared to the newer loaner X3's I've driven. The softer settings on newer versions make the vehicle feel heavier. The dampening on ours is just right for my taste. The difference in how Mercedes sets up their suspension versus BMW is Mercedes has softer spring rates and stiffer roll bars, whereas BMW seems to have stiffer springing and softer roll bars. At least in my opinion.
