Added pics for you. You can click edit button and see what I did.

X5 looks great. :thumbup:

Thanks Le Mans....Im just a bit slow when it comes to these things....:dunno:

As for the car Im really happy I waited for the 50...or 5.0 or whatever everyone wants to call it....the sound of the engine alone was worth the wait....as for the guys asking about the fuel economy...I never got the sticker so no idea...sorry

Funny how so many people want to call it a 5.0. If they have a problem with typing 50i, then they could at least be accurate and call it a 4.4TT

Either way, I'm sure you enjoy it. Good luck.

Those wheels look great and may have the get the running boards now too... :)

looks great in black

that cinnamon looks a lot like saddle brown, both with and without the flash.

Id say somewhere between tobacco and saddle with a hint of red/clay brown....Its a hard color to describe... but its darker/browner than saddle with a hint of red......

Break in period might not suggest realistic mpg

Sheikh, car looks amazing, and I like the Cinnamon Brown leather. I switched out at the last minute to get the ventilated seats.

Have a question, the rear cargo area in the EU models shows the cargo screen with a pet divider built in that can be pulled up and attached via hooks to the brackets in the headliner. Did that come with your car? I have a black lab and I need to come up with some solution for him. I was excited when I saw it in the catalog that it came with the cargo screen. But just like the LED Coronas, who knows if thats something unavailable for US market.

Personally, i don't give a rats ass what you or anyone else chooses to call it...I still know what you're referring to :rolleyes:

Not really feeling the location of the new fogs...prefer the lower grill/scoop location. Other than that i think it looks great! Congrats and happy motoring :driver:
