It's here!
 
She finally arrived and I love it! What a machine! My daily driver is an 08 RS4 and I am still shocked the power this thing has. Its just as clean as the dealer said (whew). My poor wife, its for her but I don't think she'll be able to get it out of my hands for awhile.

Only a couple of negatives... those michelin's are SO loud, drives me nuts. Can't wait to replace them. The DSP... total crap! I turn it up to drown out the tire drone and wow, I can't believe they let such a crap system ever leave the factory. Other than that, pure bliss.

A few quick iPhone shots:

But new bridgestone dueler h/p sport tires for 1000.00,get yourself an alpine 300watt digital amp and a 10or12" subwoofer, and if your still disappointed with the stereo than purchase the bsw stage 1 for better interior sound. Do those things and you'll be so happy. Enjoy u lucky son of a bitch

Congrats! what a beauty.

antochat 12-03-2009 08:34 PM

Thanks guys! Happy to be official.

So is getting a new amp going to make the sound much better or do I NEED to do the sub too? I don't need it to be mind blowing, just good. Your thoughts?

Nice Ride!

lemans4.8 12-03-2009 11:35 PM

Congrats! My other ride is an 07 RS4! Are you on AudiZine or Quattroworld?

Please tell specs/color of RS4!

Also, I recommend Yokohamas Advan ST! Way better than those Diamaris.

Also, I just upgraded the mids to BSW. Much, much better but still not the best.

LeMansX5 12-03-2009 11:44 PM

Very Cool! I peruse audizine but I'm on audiworld. It's pretty stacked:
black/black 20" TIS Veranza's, ohlins coilovers, eurowheel, short shifter, full milltek exhaust, clearbra etc. etc... A heck of a lot of fun!

Advan's eh? Thanks, I'll check them out.

tomcat 12-04-2009 12:58 AM

Congratulations! I hadn't really thought my Diamaris were that loud, must have been what I came from. The stereo in my e36 was crappy too, so I'm like a pig in poo.

Congrats,can I borrow it?

Nice purchase you made there.You right about the DSP,it does leave a lot to be desired,especially considering how expensive it is:(

zracer196 12-04-2009 07:04 AM

Congrats as well! Enjoy it! I have!

Mine will be here with me until 100K miles!

jsears 12-04-2009 04:03 PM

Congrats! When does the Dinan stuff hit the X5?

mrbmwx5 12-04-2009 04:39 PM

Enjoy and Let The Mod Begin....:D

antochat 12-04-2009 10:32 PM

Ya no kidding! So far I've got the cargo liner, those awesome mats from Drew, aluminum pedals, ipod dock, and angelibrights. Fun project for the weekend! Next I'm thinking led interior lights, running boards and cold air intake.
