Looking to buy with either an X5M or an X5 5.0 by year-end. There's an X5M on my dealers lot. What have you guys been paying for these recently?

Thanks!

I just bought one off the lot today that was optioned out exactly how I wanted it. With the promotions and various incentives, I was able to get it down to just about $90k.

Looks great and sounds like you got a good deal. What trim did you get? I have Piano Black which looks nice, but I'm a bit worried about about how it will look with the inevitable scratches over time.

The X5M is getting to be popular around here. I drove up to Philly today and averaged 18-19mpgs. I also exercised her a bit and I'm liking it more and more.

Now to upload pics. If you are using a PC, then there's a Manage Attachments button below the text area. Click browse and pick your file location. If you are on a phone, there should be a camera icon and select upload from camera to take a pic or gallery for a pic already on your phone.

Congrats! :thumbup:

I'm starting like carbon black more and more - one color by day and another color by night. :D

You guys are killing me with your AW X5Ms. I tried my best to land an AW X5M, but CB is proving to be an interesting alternative. I just got my wheels this evening and as you can see, I am embracing the darker colors. :D

Here in SoCal there were 25+ AW X5M's in stock but only 2 Carbon Black. I could have saved another $1K on AW but our 650 is white, the 750 is white, the Dodge truck is white, the plane is white, ...

Tires on pergo flooring?! Haha, jk...or is that a lighter bamboo? Nice wheels btw lol

Hardwood flooring, which isn't that hard when you drop a wrench on it. :yikes: Mrs D asked me to roll the tires into the dining room if I wasn't going to mount them right away. Unfortunately for her, there's now a set of dirty 300Ms sitting in the same spot. :rofl:

Lucky you. There is no way my wife would allow wheels of any kind in the house.

I bought mine 2 weeks ago for about 55% of sticker. . . It's a 2010. :) I needed to replace my Titan tow vehicle with something more fun and practical. After 30 or so cars over 20 years, this is my first BMW. I test drove P-car GTS, Turbo, and Turbo S, but was sold on the X5M after seeing it and driving it. Plus, the comparable P-cars were $10-20k more expensive. I still have a few Nissan Z cars in the garage, but plan to take the M to Sonoma Raceway for Wednesday night (bracket) drags. Though not nearly as fast as my Z, the M is much easier to drive, especially in bracket racing! DieWolfe, are you game to surprise people some Wednesday night?

Cheers

Let's keep chatting about it. One of these Wednesdays can work.

I am actually towing my Z with the M to Laguna on 3/2 with TrackMasters, and plan to take the M out for a session or two. I was going to go 2/18, but just decided to punt until 3/2. I'll be at Sears/Sonoma this weekend with the Z as well.

Nice ... Funny you guys are talking about track days.

Before I took delivery (waiting game after order) of my X6M I did some research into this and found a company down here that runs car track days. I used to club race motorcycles but have never had a car on the track, except a few laps at BMW Performance Center handling course, which was just a taste and not a full size track anyway. Still fun as hell, though!

Anyway turns out a guy in my office complex does these track days that I found in my research. So I am looking to take the X6M to Palm Beach International Raceway (PBIR) likely sometime in March.

We should start an X5M/X6M track day photos and videos thread when the time is ripe! Nice to see I am not the only one here with this idea, although YouTube video search will show quite a few people have had this idea :D

Anyone down in South Florida that's interested, let me know!

Hell yeah, great idea! Maybe I'll be the first to start the thread with scotts10x5m!
