I can hear the comments now at the car wash.
"I like your x5, I have an MSport as well but mine is a different color !"

"Thanks but actually it is a x5m..<silence/>....

"Oh....That's cool"

Hey Denis91,

is it possible that you post the whole informations on the Excel sheet you have talked about in your last post?

This would be great. Thanks a lot.

Hi,
I thought that "M Steptronic" means just the basic automatic transmission, not DCT unless they specify as "M-DCT"

Nope. That's from an X6M and only an X6M. Previously discussed on the forum that the DCT will only appear in the X6M. Confirmed with dealer locally whose sales manager saw the vehicle already.

Just another few weeks for confirmation upon release.

That transmission does not specifically state for the X5M and X6M.

The below Transmission is addressed to the X5M and X6M
FYI Drivelogic is the M DCT.

Is this a brand new transmission or a revision to the existing DCT?

The info sheet said an 8-speed steptronic w/ drivelogic, but, as far as I know the existing DCT has been 7-speed on all deployments.

Dont get me wrong, I am wishing fervently for a DCT, but, my dealer seemed pretty sure it was the autobox as well. That being said, wouldnt be the first time the dealers had it wrong.

Honestly this thing looks pretty underwhelming. I know there is still camo on, but I definitely would have hoped for more "M" styling. A more aggressive hood would have been nice.

There is nothing wrong with understated, but a little bit more flare would be nice here.

Hopefully it will still look aggressive have presence in person. For me the gills are the biggest loss....theyre probably my favorite element of M styling.

I know the guy who's first on the list for one at Mt Laurel.
Can't wait to go with him to pick up some small appliances or do some grocery shopping...

J/K Steve. Can't wait to see it!
