Need pic's of your X5

XFIVEX · 02-01-2011, 03:56 PM

Im undecided on which color to order. These are my choices:

Alpine White
Black Sapphire Metallic
Platinum Gray Metallic

Please post a pic of your X5 in any of these colors! I'm leaning towards the Black. Thanks in advance!

Shiftinggearz · 02-02-2011, 12:20 AM

Maybe these will shed some light...

NeoChaser · 02-02-2011, 12:33 AM

Hi shiftinggearz

Are those cinnamon leather? Any pics of the front seats? Thanks.

Shiftinggearz · 02-02-2011, 12:43 AM

Here are a few, though not dead on. Let me know how these look to you. I can always take more,

Shiftinggearz · 02-02-2011, 12:45 AM

It is actually Saddle Brown Leather

XFIVEX · 02-02-2011, 01:10 AM

Thanks for the pic's anymore exterior one's?

ZuerstBMW · 02-02-2011, 01:13 AM

Black is very nice, but hard to maintain, so I would go with the white.
Im actually trying to decide between the silver and white myself.

pfbz · 02-02-2011, 01:04 PM

These pictures are of WhiteFlashE90's X5, not mine. But they swayed me to order my 2011 X5 35i (Feb 24 PCD pickup) in Alpine White, and I plan on doing most of the same mods...

The black trim that comes on all X5's except for ones with the M-sport package (and the X5M) looks best with white! This gorgeous X5 also has a few tweaks like white painted side reflectors, all black grill, black intake splitters, dark tint, de-badged, etc.

Shiftinggearz · 02-02-2011, 03:08 PM

I do have more pics and will post this evening.

Shiftinggearz · 02-02-2011, 10:52 PM

Here are a few more pics as requested. While it is true that the black exterior requires more upkeep, It is well worth it. The X5 with in black has a more aggressive stance IMO.

Kloogy · 02-02-2011, 11:00 PM

At the dealership the night I bought it

XFIVEX · 02-02-2011, 11:17 PM

Shiftinggearz - thanx for the pix man. I'm pretty much sold on the Black Sapphire and even got the wifey's approval. What percent tint is that?

Kloogy · 02-02-2011, 11:19 PM

I had my tint shop match the factory rear tint , which is 35% if I am not mistakened.

Shiftinggearz · 02-02-2011, 11:30 PM

My pleasure XFive,
Wife's approval is always a plus. My wife and I bought two, this X5 and also got a stellar deal on a 2010 650 vert (Pics on the 6 Forum). She is a Benz woman, but I think she is slowly coming around. He He. I am actually now sure on the tint. It was already on the X5 and i figured it was standard factory tint, but maybe I am mistaken. You have made a great choice. You and the wifr will enjoy. What are your specs?

Nice ride Kloogy, Congrats on the new addition,

Here's the space gray met. on a partly overcast day.

ZuerstBMW · 02-03-2011, 12:44 AM

Damn...that space grey is looking good.

Kloogy · 02-03-2011, 12:50 AM

There aren't many colors that an LCI X5 won't look good in.....

I wished I'd have gone Saph Black...The Grey shows more dirt than I expected, seems like just as much as black.

The wife said we couldn't have two black car's.... whatever!

The grey does match the wheels nicely... if ya like that stuff!

263464757 · 02-04-2011, 12:45 AM

Anybody ever seen the "Red"? I'm sure it looks like a billboard, but I've never seen it in person.

I've only seen one here in the forum with black wheels. Looks pretty nice but a little too "look at me" for me.

I love my space grey Met but I've had 3 silver/grey bimmers in a row. I think I'll go blue with tan interior on my next one.

ad78 · 02-04-2011, 02:30 PM

we did the PCD last 20th. 50i/carbon black/m sport/etc..

Shiftinggearz · 02-04-2011, 10:54 PM

Very nice!! Great combo.
