the side effect of living in a beautiful and lush country... I would trade you. I live in Phoenix AZ, where my 2 year E class MB has yet to be rained on once, and most of the time I "clean" my exterior with a dust cloth.. But then it's a dry climate and we don't get much "green" out here..

The color you chose fits quite well with the forrest environment of Germany.

True, I really do love it here and do not plan on leaving for quite sometime if I can help it. We have only seen one other green X5 here and it was on a lot for sale. But I believe ours might be one of the first to have Green/Tob. I think I am beginning to understand why so many here are grey. I like ours being different.

Hi I also just purchased a 2007 BMW X5 brand new....ordered it. I have had the vehicle for one month. The first time I had it washed the aluminum on the running boards appeared to be "stained"...like hard water deposits....ever heard of this?

Some wheel cleaners can do this as they contain caustic agents.. I have heard of people seeing this upon delivery.. not sure there is a fix for it.. others may know.. maybe post this into the detailing forum ?
