I see a lot of posts about ordering the v6 (including myself :bigpimp and the diesel, but haven't heard anyone ordering the v8. What's the deal? No love anymore?
Excluding the 3rd row seating, I've ordered a fully loaded 2011 50i. I love the X5s, and my personal preference is the larger engine for out here in Montana.
I'm getting the 5.0 and I don't expect good mileage. I'm keeping fingers crossed that I don't get the notorious battery drain or other issues so many seem to complain about. I expect this will be my last gas powered toy. Next time, it's deisel or electric or whatever else there is.
Too bad no 3rd row on X5M...getting the 50i, 3rd row and M sports.
