e70 mods!!!

[xdrive]

1. Aero-kit (release date still unknown for the US and the rest of the world - it seems that it is only available for Canada at this stage)
2. wheel style 214 (not sure if it works with double wishbone suspension setting - still wondering whether there is any difference between the suspension setting for adaptive drive and sport suspension)
3. adjustiable ride height (need to wait till Model Year 08 hopefully)
4. paddle shifters (need to wait till Model Year 08 hopefully)

I wonder how much the above OEM mods would cost? If it is going to bring the price close to a M5 (which starts at about $82-83k), then who would get this X5 apart from those who wants the 3rd row. Even with the 4.8 v8 bi-turbo, it shouldn't be as expensive as the v-10 M5 not to mention that the one we are seeing is only a 4.8 v8, imo.
