Ordered an X5 4.8i today - April delivery
 

Ordered an X5 4.8i today for my wife, April delivery.

Got an okay deal IMHO, nothing spectacular - but it is with the dealer in my local area that we've worked with before so have trust in their service department and the overall competence of the dealership.

The car is as follows:

Platinum Bronze Metallic
Tobacco Nevada Leather
Dark Burl Walnut wood trim

Cold Weather Package
Premium Package
Premium Sound Package
Rear Climate Package
Technology Package
Automatic Tail Gate
Comfort Seats w/ Lumbar
HUD
Rear Seat Entertainment
iPod-USB Adapter
Satellite Radio

+Dealer installed trailer hitch accessory

The MSRP came to $70,118, negotiated price about $66,400 for the whole thing.

But it's done and we're looking forward to having it and giving the behemoth that is the LX470 back.

Besides, my E36 M3 track car will look more appropriate hitched to the back of an X5!

Might want to go quickly find a car with Nappa Leather.

We found that almost none of the sales people even knew about the Nappa Leather.

My personal opinion was that the Nappa Leather was much nicer then Nevada.

Best of luck with your new vehicle.

+1

Nappa leather makes a huge difference. It's more than a step up. It brings the X5 up to par with the Range Rover in terms of interior luxury.

Anyway, I love the color combo! Platinum Bronze, while it doesn't sound nice in theory, looks fantastic on the road and I'm sure it will look even better with your interior color. Congrats.

April delivery ??? You'll have in the first week of March !

Exactly. We ordered 2nd week of Dec and received it 2 weeks ago. By the way, if it's for your wife, you might want to add Active Steering. Has she test driven one without AS?

:iagree: and Nappa is a lot easier to keep clean.

I haven't heard that before. Why is Nappa easier to keep clean?

I ordered 2nd week of Dec and only got it 2 days ago. :( But now I'm :D.

Nice color combo...and FWIW Nappa is like butter and chixdiggit.

Must be the time of year for Platinum Bronze. Just ordered mine yesterday.
