or this one?
2009 Bmw X5 xDrive30i AWD 4dr SUV In Manassas VA - Perfect Auto
Missing two tone interior, Sport package, intake hose

One of these is likely to be getting a PPI this weekend. :D


There are also several 2008's out there dirt cheap, like the Monaco Blue/Beige Sport in Minnesota for 11699.

Take a look at BMWVIN.com and do a side by side comparo. They both have their attributes. The first one looks great but its a base model with no premium pack or cold weather package, 6 speaker stereo (or is it 8?) and the color is hideous. But on the other hand you have a sport pack with adaptive drive and kickass seats.

The second one is a great exterior color and horrid interior. It does have different options that will appeal to the comfort side of things.

It'd come down to personal preference. Honestly the camera is useless 95% of the time on these. Id go for the one that makes you happy. I Bought mine because it was equipped EXACTLY as I would have built mine with an awful exterior color.

So, you don't like green I take it? :D

Color doesn't bother me much, I had an Oxford Green E39 for a while. I agree on the lack of premium pack. That doesn't make a lot of sense for a Sport. Someone was trying to save that little bit of money. Not gonna worry TOO much about cold weather package, I live in NC. While it gets cold, it's nothing like when I lived in PA. I'll make up my mind when I get into town I guess.

I am really liking the interior of the green one. i would have to go with that!!:beerchug::beerchug::beerchug:

Thats where I'm leaning, even with the rest of it stripped down to basic build. Like I said, I can do without the camera, and get a BMW sunshade for the baby. Don't need rear heated seats and 4-zone climate either, especially considering where I'm coming from (1999 528i Sport with 306,600 miles on it, purring like a kitten).

Seriously, have headlight washers ever really worked well anyway? My wife's E60 has them, I've never noticed much of a difference.

"Stripped down to basic build". Think "Less to break".

Man, it would really be nice to find a Monaco Blue with that interior.

Good point!! :rofl::iagree:

I must say I have not seen one myself. But, it would be sweet!!

My First 3 BMWs were some form of dark green with beige interior.
I also had a 97 Jetta in sequoia green, my mother drove a dark green 750 with brown interior and a light green A6 Avant and my husband had a dark green civic. Im not in love with green anymore.

Have you checked craigslist around you? I see tons of them in NC and they are priced good, always more room to negotiate on a private party sale. Better color options too :)

Wow!

I'd imagine if I had that many green vehicles, I'd grow tired of them too.:yikes:

Yep, I have dug throug Craigslist and haven't found much in my price/year range or color that interest me.

Got the Green one. A few minor cosmetic fixes, an oil pan gasket, probably a vcg, and definitely an OFH Gasket (just cause if it's not the source of the oil, it soon will be). I'll get to those asap. Need to flush and refill the old yellowish coolant, order a water pump (cause you and I both know I'll need one at some point), order a T-Stat for replacement with the WP, trans service, fix the front hvac fin handles (if they can be fixed/replaced), get a Sirius/XM receiver and install it, move my XM Account to it.... Wax/Sealer, better brake pads (gotta stand on the damn things)....

Pics later. I'm bushed.

Thats Great! It seems to more of a driver oriented car than the Monaco Blue. Youll love it. :thumbup:

Woke up, looked outside the window at Bridgette, smiled. :D

Gotta resize some pics and i'll post some

so which one WAS the "green" one anyway?

2009 XDrive30

:D

All three of my girls together. My new girlfriend in back. We began our tawdry affair Friday morning in Manassas, VA.

Alright!! Great choice. I do all fluids and filters when I first get my pre-owned vehicles. Good idea for the water pump too. I think I am going to make a purchase soon. Enjoy it!! I am in Ft. Washington, MD. You are close.

;)

Yep, definitely the plan for the fluids. Although, I may wait til January on the oil since it was done in July by the dealer, along with a new LR Wheel Bearing and Drive Shaft. But first, I'm going to tackle the fuel level sender issue. Always shows half tank, or just over half tank, even when completely full.
