I'm selling it 10 months later. 5-6 little quality issues, and the slow and counterintuitive touchscreen, a heated windshield that is TERRIBLY distracting at night (tiny filaments that turn every nighttime light into a large halo, for me at least), and a couple other things. Lastly, the used '14 RRSs are selling ar huge premiums, so I'm making the switch back to the x35d w/ M-sport. Never was in love with the x5 styling, but it is a pleasure to drive and navigate the tech menus.
Good move! I hope you enjoy your new X5 . As far as styling goes...the world of possibilities is endless...at least that's what I'll be showing everyone soon .
