Got one!
 
Got the utility vehicle:

2006 X5 3.0 i6
74k miles, bought a 48 month / 48k mile warranty that covers just about freaking everything. I made sure it covered all of the typical go-wrong issues, and this warranty DOES. So pumped on this thing.

Gets 20-25 on the fwy and is LOADED with goodies.

Will get a tow hitch on it in the next month or two and try to grab me a moto in the process as well. TIME FOR SOME TRACK DAYS. Planning on using it to move into a house that will be funded this Friday, and closed / keys on Monday!!

Will be looking to get a used Kendon Moto trailer, or possibly going the Harbor Freight Route. Enclosed if I find a good enough deal.

The fiance' couldn't be happier, and now it gives me more excuses to drive the 1M :).

My first house!:

Also looking to replace the chrome wheels with some 18" variant, or at least powder-coat the chrome off.

This is probably my most formal introduction, but I've been cruising these boards for a while.

The daily:

Congrats! Welcome to the club! I see you have an E46 as well with comp wheels!

Bob oh, nice ride and great color. You were smart in getting the warranty. It will pay for itself over time. I've got a set of OEM staggered 19" style 132's if you are interested. Let me know.

That would be my father's! I'll get myself an M soon.. right now I get to share my Fiance's 1M though, so that will hold me over!

Congrats! looks really clean... I like the color
We have an e46 ZHP and a 135 but our 4.8is X5 has become our favorite in the few short months we've had it. I bet it will for you too!

Good luck with it and the house!

Her parents have a 4.8iS and that thing's warranty has paid for itself probably 5 times over now, and I don't know if they've even had it for more than a year.

It brings piece of mind knowing it has the warranty.

Looks like we will be looking into iPod integration, or at least an RCA deal for music devices. * begins search *

Style 132's huh? What are you looking for price-wise? Tires included?
