Well let me rephrase that. She drove the MDX I pay for it. She's not suffering though. Im driving a 2005 BMW while she gets to switch between a Hummer and an G37S. So she isin't really complaining. She just does not understand why I go so insane over this car whenever I see it on the road. I would chase it down and open my windows just to hear it growl.

Congratulations, Beautiful color and Welcome to the Forum. ENJOY the hell out of it.

congrats. doesnt that suspension sit too high?

It may have been raised when that picture was taken I'm not sure. When the car is parked though the suspension drops all the way down but the passenger side almost sits on the wheel vs. the drivers side that still sits 3" off the wheel

Hi and welcome. I am fairly new on this board too and so far have gotten so much help. Shame your wife doesn't realize how cool and awesome X5's are. Being a female I just don't get how so many women just don't love these things and are not interested. They are missing out.

Thanks everyone appreciate all the comments and all your help with everything. I agree 100% Trustyblonde wish there were more women like you out there. All my wife cares about is what is the newest bag out lol. Let me stop trashing her she is my wife lol!

WELCOME to the board! What part of Tampa? I grew up around the Bayshore area and went to USF for the Engineering degree. And UF for the Masters "basket weaving degree" j/k...Now, in the city of brotherly love, must be lots of love consider that Egglets just picked up Vick, right?...Once again, welcome! Nice looking SAV, love the color!

Your wife sounds like my wife. :rofl:

Congrats on the purchase, she's a beaut! This site has so much information and any problems that come about with my X5, this is the first place I check. :thumbup:

great color. congrats and enjoy. i get so many compliments on mine it's so much fun

Ya - mine has been saying the same thing - and she is really wondering why I couldn't just find one here locally. I tried to explain that maybe a couple thousand were made which means maybe a few hundred in Estoril blue, so how am I going to find one? So I got it from someone in IN almost all the way across the country. It was worth it to me. She did drive it this weekend while I was playing around at the lake with the guys and did mention she noticed it is kinda fast ;)
