X5 MSport Space Grey delivered

TurboAL47 · 11-13-2013, 03:07 AM

Picked up from BMW Manhattan last night after work. Loved the drive home even though we were stuck in traffic. Was able to get on it a little on the highway and the car feels amazing and very familiar. Sorry for the crappy pictures but we were too excited to get into the car and drive than to snap any decent shots, plus we forgot the camera at home.

Heads up display and interior is our favorite part of the car. This will primarily be the wife's car, but I will enjoy taking this bad boy out often.

Exact opposite for me. I wanted Space Gray but my wife doesn't like it. She originally wanted black sapphire (which I have on my 335), until I introduced her to Mineral White.. Went with that to switch it up from my car and from an X5 I had back in '07.

Standard Xenon. The LED rings and eyebrows look fantastic though.

there are standard latch anchors on the side seats but not in the middle so i will be using the seatbelt to anchor my kids recaro child seat. there are 3 top tethers on the back so i will probably use the middle one as well (have to read the instructions again if this is required for seat belt strapping). should be comfortable for 2 adults in the back with the seat in the middle. will probably be good for an adult in the middle in your case. interested to hear about that if and when we have another one.
