Congrats on a beautiful ride!!!

Looking good.. let the modding begin!

:welcome:

Nice X5!!!

:iagree: nice

Need some interior shots.:thumbup: :thumbup:

Looks great - what mods are you planning first, if at all?

Congrats! Nice and clean! :thumbup:

Congratz! Welcome!!

My Favorite Color!!

........and as I always say and MTX5........let the mods begin!

RR:thumbup:

Good catch!:thumbup: Almost identical to mine. Same color, same rims, 4.4i, I've got the 2006. Looks great as is, but you will catch the mod bug soon enough and want to spruce it up. You got your performance mods, and then you got your visual mods. Let the fun begin!

That is one gorgeous looking X! I'm curious as to what mods you're planning to do first as well... :thumbup:

I'd hit it.

nice X and...


:xoutpost:

congrats on new X5.
And hope that mods bug bite you hard. :lmao:

Congrats on the X -- I've had mine (2005 4.4) since December and have been loving every minute of it...:thumbup: :driver:

Very nice but I think you may have paid a bit too much.

Damn, you got a good deal on that

Nice and clean looking X. Please show us colours/theme inside as is.

Some one on this board paid $31k for his 05 4.8is with 17xxxk miles.

Thanks guys for the comments.....when you write mods, does that mean modifications?? Sorry guys, new here....how can I start??

Mods = modifications

You can take it nice and slow, just doing one or 2 things at a time. Generally speaking, mods fall into 2 categories: cosmetic and performance. Some bolt-on mods are available at the dealer: front skid plate, underride guard, running boards, etc. Some you can find on this forum under "items for sale". You can order iPod docks from BSW. Performance mods include modified exhausts, cold air intakes, engine software, drilled rotors, the sky is the limit. I am a fan of Dinan mods myself. They do not void your warranty, but they can get pricey. Other great brands include Supersprint (for exhaust), AFE (cold air intake), HRE (wheels), BBS (wheels). There is no end, your budget will be the only limiting step. Start by looking at some of the photos here on the forum to see what you like and what you don't like.

Here's some mod links to get you started:

BMW Audio | Bavarian Soundwerks

Dinan BMW | BMW Performance

And some mods are BOTH cosmetic and performance... like a hot girlfriend in the passenger seat.

but you can't get one of those oem from the dealer though :D

Thanks StanF18!! I appreciate all the tips....we will see what can we start that is not so expensive....Thanks again!!

you can start with this mod:
