New X5M owner

[vics]

Hey folks;

After 300,000 miles of, um, 'joy' in an Anthracite E39 M5, I've found my next ride for now & I'm happy to be here....

A low mileage, late 2013 build, Carbon black / Black perforated 'complete' leather interior, well optioned beauty appeared after much searching at a Texas BMW dealership and after I decided against a car payment on a gorgeous 2015 F85 (Melbourne/ Aragon), I scored this $102K original listed beauty! Pics soon

Someone welcome me aboard please...

Great buy! Carbon black is a Fantastic color.

Amazing you got 300k out of the e39, what was its fate?

[Dave00]

One LUCKY DUDE

[9vapors]

Agreed, been drooling over some red X5Ms, that mileage is crazy!

[9vapors]

Hey Vic's, mine is Carbon black as well. Great color, hard to keep clean lol. Check out my journal to see some of the things I've done with it, maybe it will give you some ideas...

Yup and damn - I'm loving this car. I'm finding the Melbourne Metallic (Red) is really rare and only 120 were ordered in NA during the E70 run.

u very lucky for all these reasons, I'm thinking my color is somewhat rare but yours is on the other level! I don't actually think I saw one in person!

Hey Vic,

Great car, enjoy in good health and get in the GB for SB

Yep, I had one exactly as yours (1 of 30). When I traded it in, the original factory warranty had run out, but my local BMW dealer recertified it as a CPO and sold it as such. I DO regret selling it though...

Welcome aboard @vics and congrats to you!

Me toO, Complete-perforated-Bamboo Beige Interior an option worth $3800 and with white exterior, it's a keeper for sure

Yes - I love this interior.

Any tips on taking care of the leather dash and panels?

I have the melbourne red over black and carbon stamped leather trim, wonder if it is a rare combination.

The melbourne red is rare to begin with so "yes" it's rare. Any pics? I'd love to see the look of the carbon stamped leather trim?

Not the best photos. I treat it with leather cleaner. It has texture when running the fingers of it, discussion topic for new folks in the X as it comes up often.

Do you have the window sticker and what was your MSRP including the options?

Very nice and beautiful interior. I love the black, however here in Houston it's roasts me in the summer. My previous E46 was Alpine White with the Black leather interior and I loved it, but man it was hot after sitting in the sun all day.
