An X5 does not carry half the weight in pricing as a E39 540i 6-Speed. Those vehicles are just solid tanks compared to the X5. |

Would hate a to see a good 4.6is X5 parted out but $7K is very optimistic with pricing at this mileage juncture. I hope you keep the X5 together the 4.6is is rare a well sorted one just needs the right owner.

I have no need for the X5 because my 540i wagon can do everything it does. In stock form my 540i wagon is faster, gets better gas mileage, has more cargo space (Google it), and has about the same off-roading capabilities (almost none). There's zero need for AWD here in Arizona. It would definitely be sad to part out the 4.6is, but sentimental value doesn't pay the bills unfortunately.

Good news, looks like the X5's staying together after all! My friend agreed to buy it and we worked out an arrangement that makes both of us happy. It's cool because I'll get to see the X5 pretty often and I'll probably still work on it with my friend.
Now I have to get him on here, he normally lives on Bimmer Forums with his two Z3 M-Coupes.

Awesome. Now he'll have a tow vehicle to get those z3 M roadsters to the track and back.

Hey, that's my truck! Cool. Yeah Danny told me he was considering parting it out and I couldn't let that happen, especially since this one was so nice. Needs a little love here and there but the drivetrain is well sorted - definitely not work that an average craigslist buyer would put value in, but I've done those jobs with Danny before and know he knows what hes doing! Here she is sitting in my driveway
Don't even know me and you already think my cars will need to be towed from the track...! That is very intuitive of you. Did the fact that I just bought a 215K mile M62 give it away? |

I'm happy with this result because it means I still get to see the X5 from time to time and Graham gets to drive a relatively well-sorted car. Everyone wins!
We're going to give it a good wash tomorrow and I'll show Graham how to take care of the paint so that it stays nice for a long time.

Man those illuminated door handles are not cheap are they? Fixing up some odds and ends on this thing, bought a seat memory module thing as well.
Wood trim on the driver's door is cracked, steering wheel could use a re-wrap, nav screen has a melted spot, other than that, she's in excellent shape Quote:
Maybe I'll pluck one of the coupes out of the garage and do a fun little photoshoot once the X5 is clean. They'll look like siblings! |
