New Member, New 50i
 

Hey everyone, I'm pretty new to the forum. Just traded in my wife's '08 4.8i for a 2012 50i today so I thought I'd stop in and say hi. So far I am really impressed by the improvements over our 4.8i. The new engine and transmission are really incredible. Anyways here are a couple of pics. Looking forward to participating more on this forum.

Can't see the pics. What are the specs? I luv my 50i, my first X5.

Congrats, I did the same thing last year. New engine, trans, and idrive/back up camera are much improved:thumbup:

Thanks. Pics should be up now. Specs are:

White/Black/Dark Bamboo
Sport w/20" wheels
Premium
Tech
Premium Sound
Running Boards
BMW Apps

Interesting note, one of the other cars I test drove that had an almost identical spec sheet had the M Sport steering wheel. That car was an April build, mine is May. Anybody else seen an M sport wheel in a non-M sport package car?

How much did you get for a trade in on the 4.8? Also, how many miles and what options were on it?

I've been toying with the idea of trading in my 07 4.8 on a 12 5.0...

Pm sent.

Gotcha, thanks. Awesome info.

congrats. I did the same... get the Dinan software upgrade!

I am sooo tempted to get the Dinan SW on my 50i but I've got an expensive summer and will see how funds look later.
