Blue E70 X5s. Where are they?

They seem rare, I don't see many on the road.

Is the the traditional black, grey and silver the trend?

I have one. Was in a hand car wash the other day and there was another blue on in front of me. The owner did a double take.

Actually I meant the non M package, at least in the NY Long Island area. All I see are shades of grey.

Very hot! Welcome aboard.

If looking for new LED angel eyes, I been stuck on getting either Dtech v7 or Hellst XRT. LUX v4 seem the flicker on shut down.

Stock angel eyes look good too. Just on the fence of doing the mod. They need to pop during the day. Enjoy the X5.

Deep sea blue

I just bought a 2013 CPO X5 Sports activity in DSB a little over two weeks ago! Was set on white, but love the blue color. Bought it completely loaded with only 8700 miles....and CPO'd until 2019. Paid $49,600 (sticker was $62k)

Had to sell my 09 M3 though ðŸ˜*

what a small world we live in!!! i was shopping at Schomp BMW in Denver at i think the exact same time you bought that blue 2013 X5. reason i say that is because i was going to trade in my 2011 335d and buy it myself, but was told by my sales person that someone just bought it. i guess that must have been you, i wanted that car soooooo bad !! :-)

when you bought that blue X5, i drove right over to Murray BMW the next day and traded in my 335d for a loaded CPO vermillion red 2011 X5 xDrive 35d with sports package and 25,000 miles on the odometer. i'm really happy with my car, but i think i overpaid for it, and its starting to make me itch :-) low mileage X5 SAVs are very rare in the Colorodo region, so it seems like when they pop up, you have to act lightning fast and pay a premium price, or someone else will snatch it up. i'm just not happy about paying more than the KBB value. i keep thinking that i should have been a bit more patient, but oh well.

so, how are you liking your new X5? what do you like about it, what do you not like about it? what else were you shopping for?

Does anyone know if the new X5 M will be offered in that new Yas Marina Blue? Easily the hottest blue I've seen on a BMW since Laguna Seca. Very reminiscent of Nogaro Blue, one of my favorite paints of all time:

Ahh...too funny. I found the X5 on Schomp's website before it was even available...and they had to pull it out of service for me to look at it. The salesman told me that there were people lined up to buy that X5, but I wasn't sure if it was a pressure tactic. Guess not.

How much did you pay for the 2011 X5D? That is really low mileage for a 2011! I wanted the X5D, but it is really difficult to find them with all the options.

Anyways, I love it. It is so nice knowing that I have warranty for the next 5.5 years!!!!

i don’t think the salesman was pulling your chain, he was telling the truth. CPO X5 with sports package and options with low mileage are not easy to come buy in Colorado. at this very moment, i think there is only two or three at dealers and they have 50,000+ miles. you definitely got very lucky to find that car with the mileage, color, and options it has, beautiful car.
