-Almost Fully loaded - actually more than I really needed. (did not have Cold weather or Heads Up).

Invoice was about 67K and 68K on the 09's I had looked at that were in inventory...and I paid less than 1000 over invoice.

In the end I had talked to Autobahn, Moritz and Classic and had good conversations and great service from all 3. I really pushed to get something done at Classic since they are few blocks from my house and eventually worked out a great deal there and took delivery the next day.

This thing is still costing me money however

Yesterday my wife hired a company to remodel the garage so it does justice to her car and the new X5

Thanks

That's awesome! Congrats! You'll have to post up some pics as soon as you can. I noticed that you didn't mention BMW of Dallas, whom I wouldn't even bother with. Did you get financing with BMW or somewhere else?

Like I've said before, I'm not really a speed guy, so a 3.0si or a 35d would serve me fine. Have fun with the 4.8i and keep us up to date on the driving experiences.
