Let's stay with the 2002-03 4.6is. later years standard equipment and options changed.

2002-03 4.6is

Full leather seats were standard equipment. They were sport seats.
Navigation was an $1,800 option.

Standard equipment
Used 2002 BMW X5 4.6is Features & Specs | Edmunds

VIN number is in ad, can look it up to see standard and optional equipment of that particular X5 4.6is

At least with 4.8iS (I know we are talking about 4.6 primarily on this thread but fairly certain holds true) comfort/sport was a no-cost option. Original vehicle orderer picked which one they wanted. Factory options were NAV, heated steering wheel and rear side (door) airbags. Dealer installed options included slide out load floor, hitch,...

Per my original window sticker, sport seats were listed under standard equipment.

Leather seats are listed under options at no added cost. My interpretation is that at least the 2002 4.6is were all built with sport seats and that there was at least one other choice for material used on those sport seats that could have cost more, less or also included in the cost.

This guide should be helpful for those not familiar with the options on E53

I need to ask this.
Is this sale price too low if it is a cream puff X5?

I have a 2004 and bought it knowing I need valve-stem seals.
Seller knocked off 3K sales price.

I NOT at all familiar with M62 engine .

What do I need to look at closely in case it's a dud.
