I like those X5's, especially the earlier ones with the 4.8.
My girl would be excited too to get one. But, she's stuck with the minivan for now.

Congrats on the X5 order. Did you get it from the same dealer and did you get a break?

I thought about the x5 4.8 for my wife but eventually ended up ordering the 650 convertible for my wife-the x5 would have been more practical for sure

I actually got mine from a different dealer than where I got the M5. The sales guy just didn't seem to be on the ball from my M5 dealer.

My order is with BMW of Greenwich (a little bit of a drive but the nearby BMW dealers are all a**es)!

The price and specs are now out-see attachment.

Yes, the new X5 can be ordered with the third row.

We are supposedly getting one of the first ones-I guess my wife will get all the "newess" but also all the first year issues!
