Upgraded our X5 again

Just recently upgraded wife's 09 x5 3.0 to this 2013 loaded X5 Msport in Carbon Black with every single option almost including the 7 seat option heads up display ventilated cooling seats and the m performance package which is apparently supposed to add 15 horsepower. This is our 3rd e70 X5 now and it is the perfect family wagon for us. She is very busy most of the time so I picked this one out for her and she didn't even get to see it until the delivery day. Overall this one has a great combination of options and the colour is amazing really. I have heard some negative reviews on the 3rd row seating option but we are fine with it and it's actually nice to have just in case you need to bring someone else along with the kids.

Looks good! Do all Canadian spec M Sports have chrome window trim? In the U.S. they got the gloss black 'shadowline' trim.

We have 3rd row as well which works great for the kids and their friends, though I don't think I'd want to ride back there for too long

Looks amazing! Great pick up. Now time to get winter tires!

If I were to buy my X5 again, this is the exact one I would buy, a 3013 35i m sport

Thanks guys, the window trim is actually not chrome but a matte titanium like silver that matches the roof rails. If it were the chrome I would probably try to change it but the matte silver doesn't look too bad and gives it some contrast. First thing to do to this one is get some oem led interior bulbs, the yellow lighting at night is so dim you can't see anything.

Very nice X5, do you have any interior shots?

M-Sport with third row seats is a very rare combination. You normally see one or the other. I got a X5 3.5 in July. All options except the sound and M-Sport (has the third row). I'll buy the sport wheels sometime soon. Also plan to install the X5M front brakes.

That's for sure, took me nearly a year to find an M Sport w/ 3rd row, but I was also searching for a 50i and there's far fewer of those than the 35i.
