newb here saying hi and x5 details too!

[jago]

hi all,
after a few days lurking thought i'd check in..

just ordered an x5 for the wifey
here some vitals:
space gray 3.0
napa tobacco w/light poplar
multi contour seats
3rd row
rear heated
rear climate
prem/cold/tech
sirius
comfort access
running boards

the tobacco looks better in person, saw it at dlr.
some pics here show it too light and clay-like.
it really is like a tobacco wrapper of a cigar, almost
a very subtle green hue, not red.
re avail of tobacco i was told to avoid delay get napa
(which actually feels much more comfortable than nevada
esp in rear seats. i wonder if its padded better too?)
and then i was told i had to get multi-contour seats too.
no worries they look great in the book at least..

since people here are asking about lease deals heres mine..

msrp -1500
61%
10k/36mo
3.19
600 bank fee

i was told rate may come down by time i take
delivery. i will get that lower rate if so.
i'm sure i couldve knocked off a few hundy from cap but
local guy who i wanted to give the biz, and they were
fair on a trade in (02 mdx) and they'll hold to trade-in
price until delivery..eta 4 weeks. we'll see..
still might get a few bucks off as the seat upgrade was
added on after the fact when they checked in the order.

regards, john.
