2005 X5 4.8is BMW assist
I am trying to purchase a 2005 X5 4.8 from an individual about 300miles away from me. I am going to fly out on Monday to pick it up, but...

We are having trouble figuring out if the car has BMW Assist and Bluetooth or not...the seller is out of town and not near the car.

Was BMW assist standard in 2005? Bluetooth? I have a picture of the original sticker, but no mention of it.

HELP!

Thanks,

Tom

thanks for the quick response
I am excited about it...I keep going back and forth in my head between picking up a 05 4.8 and waiting for a new one next month. Seems like the cost factor is similar, but I like the E53s alot and the 4.8 is beautifull.

Since this is the E53 forum I would imagine everyone prefers it to the new, but thoughts?

I will post pix either way!

Tom

Depends on date of manufacture. I believe they added that after 06/2005 prod. date. Not sure though.

I have an '06 and it has voice, bluetooth, and BMW Assist. You will love the car. The engine has more power, the brakes are bigger, and you get the 20" tires too, plus nav., DSP, etc. An all around high performance machine. I know the new X is coming out soon, but it will undoubtedly have its issues as all new models do, and it will take a while for a comparably equipped package to come out for a decent price. Keep the 4.8 for a few years and enjoy. then see how the new ones turn out.
