From what I've seen here on the E70, its first year bugs are no different then the FY E53 or most other first run Bimmers.

You know it doesn't have to be that way. Maybe that is the reason the 07 X5 sales for August this year are trailing last year August. I would think they are in the business to sell cars and all these quality issues sure don't help sales. Just my opinion and I have put a lot of miles on Bimmers and I am hesitating also.
