Why send X5 M50ds to Europe, many Americans here will happily take them.

No piano black on the interior as an option? fail. I have to see this in person because in pics I still cant feel it.

BUT, I am loving the nappa white leather interior... I MUST see this in person.

Good. Actually, there shouldn't be any M badges on it at all. It's not an M.

Man the build quality is suffering even more. Fenders need proper alignment, the plastic is all disaligned. BMW must improve on their build quality asap.

It is still an option for Euro spec cars at least.

I see it but I think this X5 looks amazing.

well technically it is a M, its the M50D going to Europe...
US M Sport "packages" don't put M badges anywhere on the outside of the car, only the inside. But that will probalby change when the M235i is released.

Love Vermillion Red on BMW SUVs, especially when paired with M Sport. Only thing that looks better is Monte Carlo Blue, saw a X6M the other day in that color and it was a stunner, hope the X4 looks like that.

Massively overpriced and ugly. An X5 xDrive35i spec'd out the same as the new Range Rover Sport HSE with the Silver Package is actually more expensive. And by the "same," I'm not even including BMW's rear air suspension, which tacks another couple grand on. The Rangie happens to be better looking, a far superior off-roader, and more luxurious.

BMW's pricing is going nuts and they're diluting the brand simultaneously with all the silly models and slapping an M badge on everything.

Overpriced....? And land rover isn't?

I have a 2011 ranger rover supercharged and it is
Literally falling apart. And their warranty is a complete joke (rattles on a 110k car are only covered for the first year of ownership.

Over the past 8 years my family has had 3 rovers and 4 x5s. They are different beasts and both have their strengths and weaknesses.

The one in the picture is not the M50d. It is mentioned that the M50d is mineral white. It looks like it says xDrive 30i/d on the side, so it is just the M-sport.

The small M badge looks quite nice on the side in any case..
