Very nice stable. Congrats. That Carbonshwarz metallic X5M is pretty sweet too.

Congrats. Welcome to the club. You're going to love it.

As Jeremy Clarkson said; "the X5 S&M motor is like putting a furious weasel in you're underpants .....it would be less offensive to environmentalists if it ran on sliced dolphin"

I have the Carbon black version with active seats and full leather. It is a true monster and is supposed to be faster in a straight line than our M3's.

last winter around 30 degrees around march i did a 0~60 w/ my co-workers x5m stock, before the engine even warmed up and was pretty much dead even until 60, although the x5m was using launch control and i dropped the clutch around 2000rpm. weather was wayy to cold for the rubbers to hook up and the xdrive just launched the car.

Once weather warms up i'll post some videos of my x5m going against my m3, a panamera turbo, range rover SC and a few other goodies

also active seats feel wierd... may be i have to get use to them.

I'm also kicking my self for not getting the auto high beams on the 2010 m3!

The exhaust sounds soo much better from the rear seats as well. i also wish the side cameras were full time and it would of been cool to have front camera like the range

The X5M was also faster around the Top Gear track in the wet than a 911 turbo and 911 S.

Rshane · 01-05-2011, 11:36 AM
