New 2015 X5 50i owner!

kkakonn · 11-29-2014, 10:17 PM

Hi guys!

Just wanted to say hi and introduce myself as a new member of the X5 community. Just picked up a 2015 x5 50i yesterday and I absolutely love the car. I've been out of a bmw for a bit my last car was a 12' 335i. Traded that thing in for a Jeep grand cherokee ecodiesel and had to make the switch back to BMW. This thing is fast!!

Car is Carbon Black with the standard black leather, nothing fancy. Optioned with Driver Assist, Msport, and Executive Package. Here are a few photos!

Got plenty of goodies planned already for this, Here's what I have ordered so far:
Gloss Black Grilles
Painted front and rear reflectors
Spacers
Meisterschaft GTC EV controlled exhaust

Nice to see a familiar E9x brethren over here

Hi all

Just ordered a new X5 5.0 loaded. Get it in early Jan.

Where do I find articles and diagrams of technical info on the engine, drivetrain and the rest of the car?

Thanks

Parts catalog: http://www.realoem.com/bmw/partgrp.d...3&mospid=56087

BMW Owner's Manual: http://f15.bimmerpost.com/forums/att...3&d=1383778913

The only other way is online searching - multiple sites have vehicle spec sheets. The most up to date break down and diagnostic info will be through Rheingold installation, but that's not really worth it unless you're very familiar with computers/coding.

Welcome and congrats as well

. Sometimes, I get so busy replying to questions that I forget some members are new owners, lol. You'l love the 50i...it's a monster.

Congrats man and welcome to the forum.

Congrats and welcome both @kkakonn, and @carygott.

Carry just invited everyone to his Napa Valley restaurant (joke ends)

. We have done this to another user in FL whose parents live in a mansion and dared send a photo and make a mention.

Looks gorgeous kkakonn.

GOLFFRR · 12-05-2014, 08:06 PM

Its the Aluminum Hexagon trim. Not quite brushed and has a texture, I found a photo of it on my phone, but I'll get you some close up ones tomorrow morning, Heres the only shot I have.

Btw, the happy guy in the reflection was my sales rep, super nice guy and has been working at the same dealer for 19 years. If you ever are in the market and in the southern california area. John from New Century is great to deal with!
