Cool forum, new here...
 

Just bought a new 08 X5 4.8i sport package, tech, premium, 20" wheels, running boards, etc. etc.

Car is being delivered tomorrow. :)

Very cool forum and very informative. Found it on a Google search for some more info on the car. This car will be my "baby mobile" as I'll need practicality when the wife has my other truck and I have the baby.

Welcome :wavey:

Nice collection with Gallardo and Conti GT. Post some pics.

This was taken 2 weeks ago with my cell phone outside my office.

And this was taken last summer after Phil from Detailers Domain finished working on it. :)

What do you do for a living and how do you do it..
You have some sick cars.

nice toys

Thanks!! I'm actually more excited about getting the X5 tomorrow than any recent car I got. Low key and fun to drive. :)

:xoutpost: Nice list of achivements. I'm interested on how you came up to the decision to get an X5.

Very nice collection, indeed :xoutpost:

Since money is no problem, what made you decide to get the X5 4.8 instead of a loaded Porsche Cayenne Turbo?

Oh, and :welcome:

btw, never seen that office building in nyc before... where is that?

Hey Stryke!! Remember me from 6speed??

Welcome Stryke, your business has grown very rapidly for the last 4-5years!!! I still remember you back then hehehe. I need to get some watches, will give you a call!

Congrats on the X5, why didn't you get a Cayenne? I wanted the new Cayenne but a V6 is USD210,000 here. :(

Since you know Phil I would have hoped he'd point you our way. He's a great resource here.

I guess your stable of cars is okay if you're into beautiful, exotic, high performance, expensive motoring hardware. ;)

Thanks for the welcome, guys. Deetz, I remember you from there. Weren't you living in Boston?

The X5 was an impulse buy. I went with my wife last week to the Lexus dealer to see about a new LS460 since I wanted another practical car but they were closed. Driving back through Bay Ridge Brooklyn we see a BMW dealership (Life Quality) and since I had a good experience with my 750i I said lets stop in and see what was new. Salesman was very nice and asked me what I wanted and what price range. I said none of that mattered and I had nothing in mind but excite me so he showed me M6, M3, another 7 series etc. but I needed a more practical car and when I saw the X5 I liked it. He said he didn't have the options I wanted in inventory but a dealer up in CT did so I asked him to order it for me and left him a deposit. Car will be delivered tomorrow and I will get to see how the drive is. I'm sure I'll like it. :)

The building is not in Manhattan. It is in Staten Island in the corporate park next door to the Hilton Hotel.

I was studying in Boston, but I have graduated and right now I'm working in Indonesia for 9 months already for my parents. Welcome and welcome again, I'm facing real life right now without my parents subsidy, I have to work real hard so I can go back to 6speed with a Turbo or GT3RS hehehe

Welcome again and people here are very nice, except that they are more quiet.

Good to have you on-board, great place with interesting folk!

Cheers,

I knew that nick looked familiar, and when you said SI - it clicked... we exchanged some emails about a yr ago when I was looking for my then grail - a 116520.

Welcome.

There's a bunch of great men/women in this forum. And great X5 knowledge. Welcome to the World!

Thanks again guys, I am seeing this slowly. Great to be here. :)
