Picked up Our 35d on Monday 11/2
 

Just wanted to drop a quick note, we picked up our 35d on Monday at the Performance Center. The best part was giving BMW NA's 35ds a workout around the track. We had a 700 mile trek home and I have to say the X5 did not disappoint.

In fact even though this is replacing our 4.8iS the 35d is a FANTASTIC motor. And the car proved to be a phenomenal highway cruiser especially with the active ventilated seats in use the whole time. A nice surprise that I had overlooked when ordering is that the Active Seats brought memory for the passenger side which is GREAT.

The new iDrive was WELL worth the wait AND the extra few thousand dollars in increased price (ours has Adaptive Drive and Sport Activity) over the 2009.

I've attached some photos. Best of luck to all the rest who are taking or awaiting delivery!!

congrats... :2thumbs:

Congrats! How was the track and the skid pad? I can't wait....:excited:

That's a lot of options bringing it up to a hefty sticker price there. Nice leather dash. Congrats on the new ride. Are you going to do anything with the wheels?

It was great!! We did the ABS/Emergency breaking course and slaloms with the X5 35ds. The wet skid pad we used 335i's.
