(update-with pix) 2008 Black Sapphire
Hi guys,
Finally I saw X5 2008. I will try to pass by the dealer tomorrow and get some pix. The only thing I notice on the car is the roof rails totally different. Anyway, just to let you know that I will get some pix tomorrow.

Cheers

- I got some pix. (Notice the roof rails)
Best regards,...


enjoy...

Isn't the built date for the 08 X5 suppose to be Oct 07 so they shouldn't be available to dealers until at least late Oct or Nov?

How do you know it was an 08'? It was my understanding that the 08's won't go into production for at least a month.

interesting that there's no sticker on it yet... ? Not that I don't believe you but then you'd know it's an '08 for sure.

This is no 08 model. As u can see there is no "auto hold"-button!! All 2008s will have this feature... BMW changes their production in week 40 from 2007 to 2008 model. Because of the fact that BMW usually changes their models in september the E70 is called (only on the papers) 2008model. --> Means: your dealer sells a 08 model but without the new changes!! The new features are available form prod. week 40. We had this discussion several times in german forums which made me call Munich: No 08model (with changes) before 1st week of Oct. (week 40)!!!
