Thanks again for all of your help. I never noticed that on the 333m's

Ps- what are you getting exactly? Are you buying a CPO x5 50i?
Also one last question. A local ny member approached me about taking over his 800 per month lease from him. Do you guys have any experience with swapping leases?
I was thinking it might be something cool for me to do to test out the vehicle for 2 years left on the guys lease and than buy something new after the lease expires. I have never been approached about anything like this before. What are your thoughts on this man?

Why do so many of you love the adaptive drive so much?
Today I added on premium package 2 and I decided to go with the m performance package after all. If I got for adaptiv drive it will put me over my budget. What is so special about it? Sell me on it! Hha

Drive one with AD on a twisty road, you will feel the difference when you push the "Sports" button, AD not only gives you electronic/hydraulic swaybars but EDC shocks as well.

I have owned four X5's and all have had AD!

Thanks. Does it add a lot of weight to the car?

AD out weighs any disadvantage that the extra weight may cause, in my lastest X5 I dropped the third row seats as I never use them.

If your worried about weight & performance drop back to 19" wheels or even 18", it take alot more power to drive 20" wheels.

And you also have to let go some MPG on the way...
But for me, looks won over sense.

I didn't say I was worried about weight and performance. I just asked a simple question: doe is it add a lot of weight? Do you know how much weight AD adds?

[Doms X5 48is]

Yeah there is no way I would ever drop the 20s
The meaty 20" premium rear and slightly skinmier front tires , not to mention gorgeous wheels have won me over way back in 2002 on my style 287 4.6is and they won me over again on this new build with the style 333m.
