Thanks! Yeah, I like the color. It's Highland Green. I would've preferred Oxford Green, but beggars can't be choosers. It doesn't show dirt too much, and is pretty classy/understated. Anecdotally, it holds up fairly well too.

Highland green looks great java, enjoy the X, and nice style 63's on there as well !

Hey, met a few here but don't think iv posted on this thread.
I've owned my 2001 5mt x5 for about 2 years now.

I've had a donor engine put in with 56k miles chassis with 156k.
Rear suspension was saggy,so I removed air susp and pump replaced with bc racing coilovers.
Rotors had a big lip dug into them so replaced with dinan slotted rotors.
Got some snow/mud nitto Terra grapplers.
Soon to be mods that I have ordered and am currently waiting on delivery:
Evo uuc
conforti shark
And stainless headers

Hey Guys, another member to the 6-speed list. Just bought a 2004 6-Speed. Alpine white on black. She was really dirty. Cleaned up pretty well. Just Added a UUC CDV. Holy Crap, the difference is night and day. Really excited to be a member of the "club" :D Interior pics to come.

Nice! AW is a great color. You don't see it a ton around here.

Ricky Bobby 10-26-2015 10:51 AM

Awesome, you're right AW is not exactly hugely seen, love it! Clean as hell too. After almost 4 years, the 3rd pedal way makes up for lack of 2 cylinders (and more reliable too lol)

Nice find! I still want a 6mt haha.
I have to say normally I don't like the white e53 but yours looks really good!
