New Member saying hello
Hey guys.
Jus thought i'd drop a quick hello post.
New X5 owner here. Not new to BMW scene, but it's my first X5. Just picked it a couple of weeks ago. It's a 2006 V8 Black Sapphire with Black leather with Executive and Sport Package.
Here is a quick pic. Will post more once it gets through my "detailing shop".

Don't think i will mod this one too much...will see... so far i am just planning on changing interior bulbs to LEDs and probably purchasing an Iphone integration module.
Was going to do an AEs upgrade, but after reading more about it on here, i personally don't think it's really worth the money...
Anyways, looking forward to being part of the forum!

Ricky Bobby will become famous soon enough
nice looking ride, clean too!

The mods are addicting and these SAV's are addicting, although my X is 10 years old I couldn't imagine driving something else. Do you also have dedicated summer wheels?

Thanks, yes i love the truck so far. As for mods being addictive, yes, i know that mod bug bites hard, so i am really trying to resist the temptation to mod the heck out of it
I've got a set of summers OEM 132 19" staggered wheels with summer performance tires, but they won't be going on the car until at least May...
Might paint them gunmetal before i mount them (see what i mean about the mod bug...)

Thanks for the welcome and good luck with your search.. i hear these tires can get a bit expensive... I guess being on budget and X5 can't exist in the same sentence

I already am... have left a bmw scene for awhile and drove a Mitsu Montero/Pajero for a few years... and found out that there was absolutely no community around those trucks... where as here, such a wealth of information, you can spend hours just browsing and learning new things.
