Are the 6 cylinder turbos a good engine? I did get a 36k warranty with it too. Don’t know if I said that already

Thanks! I will try to get some more pics up tomorrow. Already found a few projects from looking through the forums here. I want to add a wireless charger, and wireless apple carplay.

Ok pictures are going to have to wait a few days. I took the car in this morning so they could finish the detail. it had some scuff on the wheels and some small chips in the paint on the hood. Sales man said it would take an hour ( i had my doubts) when I went in this morning they sent me out in a 2021 X3 and said it would be a few days.

I have been reading a lot of post on the forums here. Great source of information.
already I have my top 3 things I want to do to the new BMW.

1. I want to do the wireless charger over the ash tray. can anyone who has done it confirm what charger they used? most I have seen don't have very good reviews, and I want to make sure I get one that works and fits in the space.

2. I want to add the wireless carplay, I have seen some post on this too. looks like there is one that is recommended that is around $250.

3. I want to add the remote start feature with IDATA link. I have their system on my Yukon and love it. Yukon had factory remote start, but I put in the other since I had it in a different car before the Yukon. same harness and I like using the drone mobile feature. I don't use remote start much, but I use the remote door unlock with my phone all the time. I am always outside and need something from the car, but don't have the keys on me.

Great looking X5. Hopefully owned by someone who could share all the maintenance & service records. This is critical with any BMW, MB, etc. Ticking time bombs if not....
