Got one!

Got the utility vehicle:






2006 X5 3.0 i6
74k miles, bought a 48 month / 48k mile warranty that covers just about freaking everything. I made sure it covered all of the typical go-wrong issues, and this warranty DOES. So pumped on this thing.

Gets 20-25 on the fwy and is LOADED with goodies.

Will get a tow hitch on it in the next month or two and try to grab me a moto in the process as well. TIME FOR SOME TRACK DAYS. Planning on using it to move into a house that will be funded this Friday, and closed / keys on Monday!!

Will be looking to get a used Kendon Moto trailer, or possibly going the Harbor Freight Route. Enclosed if I find a good enough deal.

The fiance' couldn't be happier, and now it gives me more excuses to drive the 1M .

My first house!:



Also looking to replace the chrome wheels with some 18" variant, or at least powder-coat the chrome off.

This is probably my most formal introduction, but I've been cruising these boards for a while.

The daily:

Bob oh, nice ride and great color. You were smart in getting the warranty. It will pay for itself over time. I've got a set of OEM staggered 19" style 132's if you are interested. Let me know.

Congrats! looks really clean... I like the color
We have an e46 ZHP and a 135 but our 4.8is X5 has become our favorite in the few short months we've had it. I bet it will for you too!

Good luck with it and the house!

Her parents have a 4.8iS and that thing's warranty has paid for itself probably 5 times over now, and I don't know if they've even had it for more than a year.

It brings piece of mind knowing it has the warranty.

Looks like we will be looking into iPod integration, or at least an RCA deal for music devices. * begins search *

Style 132's huh? What are you looking for price-wise? Tires included?
