LemansX5,
I'm trying to roughly figure what the 07 X5 4.8 will cost me, the sticker price above is $61,495.00. I want Prem Sound (600 watts) and I want Comfort Seats and I don't want 3rd row or Cold Weather Pkg.

$61,495.00 minus 1200.00 and 900.00 from this sticker is $59,395.00. How much do I add for Prem Sound, Comfort Seats?

Is the saddle brown/terra leather only for Canada? The US brochure doesn't have it.

That's what it seems like, saddle brown and camel are not for US. Hope they add it for US next year.

Holy crap that's cheap, thought it would be more for the 4.8 model. I def. need to go take a test drive, its a toss up between the 2007 rover sport and the 2007 X5 4.8.

One error in the original post... the optional CD Changer will be located in back of the glovebox, not the rear of the car.

My dealer told me, its rear of car. Thanks for correcting. So what goes in the area in back? as there is still opening in that area where there was 6-disc changer and NAV in E53.

They might be able to install an accessory CD changer in the back if it doesn't come with one from the factory?

I know that it goes in the glovebox because I've seen it in the brochure, plus I saw several X5s with this option at the dealer launch and they made a point of showing us that feature.
