On a related note, it looks like you can no longer get the options list from the ETK website? The link is no longer there.....
I've been using this one: http://www.bmwvin.com/

Yes, I noticed that I like the sports package seats and I think I would prefer the M-sport suspension. The ride of the X5 felt a bit bouncy over bumps. Today I test drove the 2012 MB ML350 diesel and the 2012 BMW X5 35d for the first time and the X5 diesel wins hands down. I also tested the 2012 MB ML550 twin turbo and found it to have plenty of pick up and a sportier suspension (it was well priced at $49k for 26k miles, but out of my price range). I'd like to have that sportier suspension in the X5.
