But you know the saying, "pics or it didn't happen."

Congrats buddy! I'm with you, this thing is incredible. It only gets better too. My mind is blown every time I drive it. I've studied everything in this range closely and honestly I don't think a better "like" vehicle exists.

Now post some pictures before you get permabanned.

A quick picture...

Threw some winter wheels and tires on it right now, but will be going back to the summer tires in a few months (hopefully).

This looks just like my X5M, but I have the Mugello Red Leather Interior.

Looks just like mine. Here's when I got it a couple months ago and then after the RW Carbon bits. Still need to black out the trim and get the wheels powder coated black. Absolutely perfect daily driver that's tons of fun.

Maybe, the only thing I am really interested in at this point is getting a set of the 612M OEM wheels, so I can put some proper tires on it. Just trying to justify the cost of the new wheels when I have the 611M wheels/tires with only 6000 miles on them.

The first owner did quite a bit to it already.
- Paint protection film on front end and 12" on the sides
- Dinan Stage II - Software only
- Integrated Radar/Laser Detection

I am pretty happy with the vehicle so far. As other members have said, it brings a smile to my face every time I start it. Reminds me of cold starts with my E92 and the raw exhaust note

Congrats. SNAP - I was just like you 10 months ago and picked up a 2018 X5M in Donington Grey with 611 wheels. I still luv driving this car and much prefer this to a G05 or a Porsche Macan S which I have driven recently. Most people are blown away when you tell them its 575 bhp.

Enjoy your purchase - it looks good.
