X in VIN number

Any idea what the second 'X' in the following VIN number stands for?
VIN#5UXFA935X6LE84349 (or is it just a typo?)

Also, were there any 4.8is models built in Germany and imported to the US?
Check out this VIN#5UXFA93556LE83156
It has a build date of 2005/05 - but Carfax reports it as a 2006 model.

All X5 are built in the USA.
The last 7 digits contain all the information regarding production details

That's what i figured, but the carfax report says that the X5 was imported from Germany - and the first record of title is US Customs? Oh well - guess i will have to pass on this one. The VIN decoder only suggests that it is 2005/05 build. The rest is the same.

Any ideas what the second 'X' is on the other VIN#5UXFA935X6LE84349?
