M-sport 50i delivered

New X5 was delivered today. BMW repurchased the 2011 after some issues. The M-sport package looks sharp and I'll be breaking it in on a long road trip tomorrow and Friday.

Curious to see if any seat of the pants difference with the M performance pack. Exhaust note is different in a good way.

A few pics...

Have you got foglights in the air intake grills?

Thanks guys. Put 580 miles on it today so break-in is well underway. The color is titanium silver and yes there are fog lights in front air intakes - comes with the m-sport package.

Didn't spring for the adaptive drive, so a twinge of regret for not going for it. Feels a bit faster than a stock 50i, but mostly enjoying the sport exhaust sounds.

Passed by the X5 plant twice today and was sorely tempted to stop by the Zentrum. Perhaps the next trip.

Thanks. They handled it well. Took a while to get a replacement build to spec, but worth the wait.
