Interestingly, the M-ified diesel 5ers ditch the standard electromechanical steering for a hydraulic system that's derived from the M5, and both the X5 and X6 variants uses systems similar to those on the X5 M and X6 M.
This is the current steering setup I had on my last X5 m-sport 35d, it comes with the adaptive drive when you choose that option.

I currently have a X5 loner, a standard 30d, and the steering is terrible, it must be about 4 turns from from lock to lock, trying to parallel park with it is near impossible after having the other steering system.

That is such an ugly car (spoken out of pure unadulterated envy)!

Seriously, beautiful car. Are the calipers really yellow or is this a photoshop? Looks very cool - what gave you the yellow caliper idea?

Love the Yellowy-Greenish colour Are those Calipers bigger than the standard E70 Calipers? Look monstrous! Where did you get the "///M" decale if you don't mind me asking?

You can paint your calipers with G2.

You can get the decals from here:-

The colour on my calipers I call day glow yellow, I had the paint mixed up. Its the same colour as the safety vests that roadworkers wear so they are visable.
