Fun in the SNOW in 2015 BMW X5 35i JB3 plus other Luxury SUVs (R63, Q5 3.0t, X3 35i)

Hope you guys like this video I put together for everyone. We had so much fun and we will def be doing this again soon. I'm sure everyone knows about the big storm here in the Northeast, I'm very excited to test out the capabilities of the xdrive. Last year was nothing compared to whats about to happen. I'm running the conti extreme DWS, they have about 60% tread left and I'm positive they will perform as advertised. GOod Luck to everyone that is facing this storm head on....Take Care and please share my video.

There are 2 white X3 M's in this vid, both 35i's. One is the 2015 LCI, and the other one with the black rims and kidney grill is a 2013.

Thanks though...The X3 with the 20's is beautiful I agree and I'm sure that is the one you're talking about....
