Silverstone on whatever their brown is now - Terra, Cinnamon, Saddle, whatever - would be gorgeous. Piano black trim (or even alum or the CF leather)... Just not wood.

Good eye. You also outed Gobbles and his CGT when he was trying to hide it, which caught him off guard I'm sure.

I absolutely love it! My other main, and more obvious choice, would be the RR Supercharged but the X5-M is so much more unique and un-common!

DO IT!! I love that truck. I've driven it a couple of times and it really impressed me. My buddy has one and loves it.

I would do Carbon Black(NavyBlue) and Cinnamon interior.

As a die-hard BMW enthusiast - buy the X5 M. You'll not regret it - the truck very surprising how fast it is and how well it handles.

The dealer's gonna let me know when they have one in to test drive. He expects one by the end of the month. I also just found out the 2012s go into production in March! Should be fun.

After 6000 miles with no problems (other than the hard ride from the run flat tires), I can say it is just an incredible vehicle that is exciting every time I get in it.

I don't and never will love the iDrive system or the navigation but it's livable.

It gets very positive attention, much more than I expected..

I love it.
