First post: Almost ready to pull the trigger on X5 35d

[bluelines]

Would welcome any and all opinions on my planned configuration:

2010 X5 35d
Monaco / Tobacco / Bamboo or possibly Monaco / Saddle / Bamboo
Tech package
Premium package
Exec package
Premium sound

So for Canada this config is everything you can get except for the sports package and HUD.

I've only looked at a small swatch of the tobacco leather, and seen some pics on this forum and elsewhere. Hard to know how it will really look, but I love that very few people seem to get it (dealer in Toronto didn't have a single car in stock with tobacco, and they are I think one of the biggest dealers in the country).

The dealer has suggested 2% off MSRP is realistic, although I haven't negotiated at all yet. Going to try and do quite a bit better than that if I can...

My current vehicle is a 2006 E90 330i, so I'm really looking forward to a bigger, more comfortable vehicle. I'm kind of tempted by the great deals to be had on the last 535xi wagons that are coming in, but I do really need the extra ground clearance, so it will almost certainly be the X5 I go for.
