So long X5! We only had you for such a short time!


What we steped into. :craig:

Just kidding!

More later. I must compile the picture and take a shower in the mean-time.

Sick X5 being prepped for delivery, or so I think. Still had a window sticker on. There will be some more pictures of it later when we leave the garage.


And here is our X6! Color combination is different, but we love it.










And another X6 in one of their detailing bays. Looked to have been just waxed, as the guy left the wax to bond to the paint.








Other cars being detailed. X5 looked to be waxed, and the 3 series seemed to be polished. Polished was broken down nicely, but I didn't get a close up of it.



And some random shots of cars. I loved being back here.








On the way out I spotted this Vermillion Red X6 just like our X5.


And some parting shots with both our X's. X6 and eX5.







Detailer left some dirt behind for us to clean.


Returning to the cars.




Part Three coming up, as I can only add so many images.

It's finally home sitting next to our 325xi. Our E53 X5 3.0i is now sitting in the driveway spot the E70 had.

Gratz Sure you will enjoy it

I always enjoy going behind the scenes at the dealerships and see the shops - so many cool cars usually strung up in unusual poses

It's a very unique car that we never see many of. I sure think it is a head turner.

When I get to drive, which will be in about a month, I will be driving the E53 X5 3.0i as my primary car.

I thought the instant MPG gauge was a great feature! I miss it!

It's much better than the digital version in the center because you can see see the needle by peripheral vision.

I find the oil temp guage much more important than MPG. That really tells you if the engine is fully warmed up and when you can really push it.

I won't be getting the X6. It is a nice car, but I have noticed that BMW has made some cuts in features to save some money. We did get robbed of a few things, such as 5DK (Sideview camera) and new LED angel eyes. Because 5DK was taken away, we had an extra $300 which could've gone towards rear heated seats, but the dealer never told us about that until it was built. I've also noticed BMW took away the grab handles on the headliner.

And yes, I was born in 1994.
