Goodbye X5
After having the car less than 11 months, I decided to part ways with the X5. I thought I would like the ground clearance and the handling all the motor journalists rave about. However, after coming from a Audi B8 S4 I miss the sporty handling, responsiveness and power of a sports sedan, so I traded it in for an Audi S6 last week
I'd like to thank everyone for all the help and maybe I'll give the X5 a try again in the future. Posting the last pic I took of the X5 below and also my new ride. p.s. I have parts for sale, will be in classifieds section!

Do you have those gloss black grills?
Wish I could have traded rims with you before you traded it in!

Unfortunately, I didn't have enough time to take them out. Was difficult to get away from work and the dealership wanted me to take possession of the new car before the end of the month.

Was around what I expected, they gave me $44k for trade-in, without the accident I could've got around $48k-$50k I think

I prefer Audi sedans over BMW sedans, mainly because of the design of the interior.
Nice! I still kinda miss my S4... until I step on the gas in the S6 :P Thanks! Hopefully no more hugs with deers lol

I've only had sedans up until the X5 50i I recently got and can say with the DHP. I forget I'm driving an SUV, until I go to step outside the X5 and realize I don't have to push my self up to get out of the car lmao.

I haven't driven a 50i with DHP, maybe if I ordered that to begin with I may not have needed to change lol Also, my X5 is listed on the dealer website if anyone is looking; https://www.landroverparamus.com/inv...kr0c37h0x78939

Jlu88, if you don't mind sharing how much did you get for your car as a tradein? I'm very curious cuz dealers are usually scambags and would always offer some miserable numbers.
