They started doing saddle brown in USA on January of 2008. My dealer indicated shortly after I requested mine, they saw it in their systems, new to them. They modified my order to do it for me so in Dec. '07 it still wasn't normally possible.

Anyway, what do you need this for? A bet? I decided on this combination after a member here from Dubai did it before any of us... I will forever thank him for it. He had the 21" style 128s too - incredible.

EDIT>> corrected years 1/08 and 12/07.

because its rare..when its time to sell X I can use it as a selling point and why not have paper work if its rare for myself..You go to car show and most of the cars there have paper work of some sort

SHOW CARS may be able to get this. but a 2008 X5?!?!?? Maybe in 40 years!

I've never known BMW to divulge production numbers in terms of 'specific configurations' (numbers made with a particular color/interior, etc.)...you can find models and quantities for each year.

"selling point"??? Hopefully YOU didn't pay more for this 'rare and valuable' car....
