How's it compare to the F85?

Planning to replace my CTT in the next few years. A PHEV X5 (we'll see if the hybrid comes over to the V8 M) would be great, but I really enjoy the fact the my CTT was cheap and is readily replaceable.

The F85 was more comfy but handled like a boat. The F95 comp is much more precise. I prefer comfort most of the time to be honest so maybe this was a downgrade. But I dont really want to own one of these things outside of warranty so I will keep needing to get a newer one.

Insane color - wow!

The comment on dropping prices? Curious why would that be. I think you are in the financials biz and curious to pick your brain for insight

Cheers,

Thx. Well I'm no expert on cars and values but BMW is selling more X vehicles as a % of total sales here in the US since they are made here and less affected by supply-chain issues. So not like this is a car in the rare or collectible category.

Historically the X5Ms have depreciated rapidly and dealers needed to take large discounts off msrp to sell or lease them. Of course covid threw everything for a curveball and for a short time, people were paying premiums over msrp for new ones, but that period is over. Now new and especially used ones are sitting on lots with very little buyers. High gas prices are thinning out the V8 crowd and the 40i and 45e are selling much better.

These two have been keepers. Both modified : Dinan e46, Shark injector Z3.
Both run clean and new on Redline oil….
The valvetrain pic is of the Z3 with 50k miles. Superclean

Replaced a few of the cars since the last time I posted here.. they don't all fit in the garage together so heres a few separate shots..

CPWINCH · 03-28-2023, 07:27 PM

(garage completely stripped down due to a flood in the upstairs bathroom)

The M4 was replaced by the E90 M3 a little over a year and a half ago. Now it is two 4.0L high revving naturally aspirated engines.

Bonus pic of me with the Kauai house transportation: Kawasaki KLX 300 Dual Sport and a 2017 Prius with Michelin PS4S. Most importantly, I always wear the most ugly tourist clothes I can find while I stay there.
