New Member, New X5
 

Hi Guys,

New X5 Owner here. Used to own an M3 but moving towards to SAV to cope with the roads & weather we have up here in Calgary, Canada.

Just purchased a 2005 4.8is X5 with 138,000kms Fully loaded. Very happy with the machine so far. Was able to obtain a comprehensive 60,000km warranty as well so have some added peace of mind.

I am thinking strongly about removing the stock air-ride suspension and replacing the whole system with coilovers, is this possible?

In the meantime, adding some tint, ipod integration and possibly magnaflow X-pipe. Any thoughts/ideas?

Happy to be here and hope to learn lots about my x5!

Welcome looks just like mine. You don't need exhaust. You just need to apply your right foot properly. lol

Yes you can switch to full coils. Just search here.

Good looking truck! Enjoy it.

So sweet. Wish mine had those tasty running boards. Enjoy.

welcome aboard!!! nice specimen!!!

those boards were almost a standard feature on Canadian X5 - I have seen so many of the X5 destined for Canada with those boards installed at the factory

and just Slick said - application of appropriate pressure of the right foot results in satisfying growl!!!

Welcome aboard
