NEW X5 35D OWNER!!...on friday haha
 
So on Friday I will (most likely) be picking up a '10 X5 35D.

-Black Saphire/Tobacco
-29k Miles
-Cold Weather
-Rear Climate
-Navi
-Prem
-Tech
-Pano Roof

I've been creepin the forums fora few days and gotten a lot of information on the car and of course...the MOD BUG. Just wanted to say hello!

I know its a great car and I own 2 BMWs already, an E92 M3 and a E60 535i, so I am looking forward to the addition to the family!

It is a beautiful car! how are you liking it so far?

Overall I love it. You'll love it.

Nitpicking:
It's a diesel, but I got 26.2 MPG on the commute to work today. I averaged 23.1 in my e46 325ci coupe.
Too much wheel/fender gap.
It's a little too tall to get in and out. I don't want to wear out my leather.
I wish I know what a combox was before my purchase.
I want really want the typical fob etc reprograming.
If you go into a corner too fast "the nanny" applies the breaks.
I want different wheels, w/o run flats.

-Well the milage is primarily why Im getting the Diesel.

-The Height Issue I noticed as well and I will most likely address that with the H&R 1.2" springs which should help with the leather issue as well. (maybe you should look into it?)

-And I believe the Nanny can be turned off :-)

-And I not fond of the stock wheels either. Maybe a set of 214s flat black and some 25mm H&R spacers for the rear. That should give it the stance Im looking for.
