Weekend Driver - Second x5

Looking to pick up a fun weekend driver and eyeing some F85s.

My daily is a x5 50i 2019 and I don’t drive much, avg. around 700 miles per month. The 50i is a lease which ends summer 2022, with the low miles I am putting on it and if used inventories are still tight, I may buy out in the end.

This listing is one I am looking at 2015 BMW X5 M :

I was hoping for B&O but this one has HK audio. Would I be missing out too much with the HK. Any issues with the 2015’s that I should be aware of ?

Thoughts and feedback would be appreciated.

I have the H&K system in my X5M. An honestly, I don't think you'd be missing out, as the H&K system sounds awesome.

Does it still have any kind of warranty on it? Can a solid warranty be added to it?

Some people have a high tolerance for BMWs out of warranty and some don't. IMO it's worth making sure you've got a warranty on an expensive vehicle like this.

Why would you pick basically the same vehicle as weekend driver? I have a X6M and a Z4 each with different missions in life and it is great. If I had the same vehicle twice I would just drive the favorite one all the time. You are barely putting miles on the vehicle you have now. Upgrade to the X5M and spend money elsewhere. If the lease is a problem, just wait one year. There will be some great 2019 X5Ms available by next summer if you like this generation the best.

The B&O system is a considerable upgrade over the HK. They're fairly common in the f85s, so I'd recommend waiting and finding one with it.
