Spotted this clean X5 on 375s today. Possibly a member here?

That's awesome. Do you have an instructor that takes you around the track with this event?

My almost new (2000 miles) X5 on collection day at the dealers. Alpine white F15 30D traded in.

Very pleased with the extra power and high spec compared with my AW.

I will post better photos when I get the chance.

Yes, the instructor is in his own car at the front of the line, and they use two-way radios in each vehicle to provide instruction. It was a blast!

They’re great looking wheels, OEM and 21”, best of both!

It was at Circuit of the Americas
9201 Circuit of the Americas Blvd
Austin, TX 78617

Loads of fun!

That sounds great. So you guys just rip around the track for a bit? Did the X5 like being pushed around the corners? I should give that a go sometime, sounds like a lot of fun.

Oh no, we thrashed their ///M cars, not privately owned vehicles. I would never drive/treat my BMW how we treated these.

Ahh gotcha! Much better idea to beat the piss out of theirs lol. Glad you had fun, I'm gonna look into this and see if it's offered in my area.

Nice,
I also had a alpine white 30d (2014 non M-sport) earlier and now a black sapphire 40d M-sport. Very happy,

Alpine white was very easy to maintain, but I am already finding black to be quite a challenge. I guess you prefer black? 40d is a nice upgrade on 30d!

Still waiting on the x5 to come back from the body shop.. I've got the b&w blues.

Instantly felt your pain through this. That's a broken heart if I have ever seen one.

Agree!
The AW always looked quite clean even when dirty!
The black one doesn’t to say the least!
Every little spot of dirt is very visible and chips from other cars etc is a pain in the a**e.
But looking good when clean.
I have protected most of the front part of the car (hood, front, fenders, headlights, side mirrors) with a transparent protection film (body fence). Very happy with that!!
Good luck with your awsome car, I envy your wheels! Really good looking!
