needs to have seven seats, the benz m63? while a hot car doesn't have 7 seats

Wait 6 months(?) for the new E63 wagon then.

BTW, am I the only one that things the X5M looks too tame?

thought the same way. i think the wife's 4.8i looks tougher

Pciked up the 4.8i X5 2 months ago...

Looks tuff, plenty of tyre covering the rims... (no more guttering...I hope).
7 seats are handy.....


But I want a X5M for me..... Would not get teh X6M.....

There is nothing, other than the wheels that really sets them apart from the standard X5!

I was actually thinking this on the way to work this morning. I was following an x5 with some factory 20” wheels on it. And wondered how you are supposed to know what spec it is.
If it was a 3 series, it would be 318, 320, 325, 330 or 335.

its easy... All M's have quad pipes....

But, If i put a blower kit on the 4.8i sport sould there be much difference in performance from a X5M ?
