Where are the pics?

Sorry, pics are coming. Been so damn busy in rehearsals, playing concerts, making reeds, and teaching bassoon students (and then it rained for two days) to take pics. Will try to do so tomorrow. BTW, this vehicle is the best I've ever had. Active steering and adaptive drive with sports package is amazing. It just doesn't make sense that something this big should go so fast and handle so well. Build quality is superb. Anyone who says American workers cannot build quality products is plain wrong. I cannot wait to take a tour of the plant in SC. Heck, my contrabassoon is built in South Whitley, Indiana and is better than the German made instruments that cost three times as much. And I bet you didn't know that the best high end audio equipment in the world has always been designed and manufactured in the USA. We can do it better here.

OK. I took ten photos of my new 2010 X6 5.0 today, and tried to upload them to this forum, but a message came up telling me that they could not be attached because of some security issue. Does anyone know about this, and how I can get these posted? Thanks. BTW, all ten photos are in JPEG format.

Create a Photobucket account and upload them there, then copy the [IMG] code here. :D

OK. I think (maybe) that I finally got the photos of my 2010 X6 5.0 that I took today in front of the Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts (where I work) posted to this forum. Interior shot is not so good, but security guys were bugging me to move the car, so I didn't have a lot of time to fiddle with the camera. I got all options, except for 40 hp upgrade (this thing is already too fast) and the 20" performance tires (since I drive up to northern Michigan a lot in the winter, and need the all-season traction). Good news is that I got the Michelin rft's (also got the spare tire) with 41/42 PSI front/rear with nitrogen fill and the ride is firm but not too stiff even in sport mode. No problems so far except for the fuel mileage...but I knew that going into this deal. My colleagues in the National Symphony are going nuts over this thing. I may have started something here...

Damn, interior shot didn't make the post. Will do that later. Have to leave now to play a concert (so that I can pay for this thing).

Back home from playing the concert (listened to some huge choral works on the premium sound system in my X6 on the way home, and it definitely has been upgraded from 2009 model; it.sounds amazing). I design high end audio systems, home theaters, and pro studios, and the sound I'm getting from this HK Logic 7 system compares favorably against the best studio monitoring setups I've installed. Incredible detail and retrieval of ambience at all volumes with very deep and fast low frequency response. Hard to believe that this system uses class D amplification. Much better than the 6.5 grand B&O system option in the Audi Q7 (I did an A/B comparison the other night, and the difference between the two was startling).

Here are two interior shots of my 2010 BMW X6 5.0. Not the greatest resolution, but you'll get the idea. Black perforated leather for active ventilated seats and dark bamboo trim. Didn't go for the leather dash.
