A few pics from a recent trip.

Drove home to NC for Christmas and snapped a few pics along the way. Not bad for a cell phone. Hit a nasty ice storm in the Texas Panhandle and had to do a 600 mile detour on snow packed/ice roads due to I-40 being shut down. What a disaster. The X5 did awesome. What a machine. I'm sure glad I had my 17's with Winter Blizzaks mounted. Here's a sampling of some pics I took.

If you ever wanted to know what it would look like if NASA sent an E53 to Mars as their next rover....... here you go. Hope you enjoy.

More trips to come.

That is some excellent photography and that X looks to be a very clean example! Well done on that purchase.

To campy above, alpine white is not a BMW individual color at all

Its definitely a rare interior, I think was only available on the facelifts. I've only seen one other X with a truffle interior, Riggodeaux's 2006 6-speed manual, his exterior is BSM though.
