X5 3.0sd M pack finally arrived..... WOW!

I recieved my 3.0sd M pack on Wednesday. Have spent hours trying to send pics, unfortunatly with Mac it is not so easy to resize. The M Pack wih the 20'' is awesome to drive and feels better than the 19" that I previosly had. I am runing in so no coments on the performance however with the touch of the pedal there is a lot more power than the 3.0d. The comfort seats are great and having air blowing through the seats puts a smile on my face. Getting used to the Voice control is a challange but I am enjoying. I am also enjoying the saphire black as opposed to the space grey,boh are great though.

I am hoping this new one gives me no problems, I hope to soon forget the problems I had with my 2007 oil leak. Thank you all for your imput and support.

Congrats! Looks great. Love those wheels.

Off-topic: Noticed that you had both the titanium & space grey colors prior. Between those two which was easier to take care of between the two?

Would you say the easy of taking care of space grey is closer to taking care of black or the titanium? I love the space grey, but definitely want to get away from the difficulty in keeping a dark color car (like black) clean. Not sure what space grey falls under.

Thanxs!

Titanium looked clean even when dirty. Really easy to look good

The space grey is not as bad as black, but shows dirt much quicker than Titanium.
