2 in one week!!!

So I go to Bakersfield to get my wifey the 335i and I was so impressed driving the thing for the first week (I had to get the stickers to get the car on base) I went and back and bought a 06 X5 4.8is! that thing is fast. and this is from a GT3 driver. It has all the bells and whistels and that wonerful motor and sound. I have had so much fun driving these things my battery died on my GT3!! Any body else have a hot rod X5? Supposedly there arent many of these 4.8iS

Nice choices, there is a reason why BMW and Porsche are my two favorite companies...they complement each other very well. Let's see some pics!

You should get a Cayenne Turbo. They are faster Just kidding, nice stable. Put an exhaust and chip on the 335 and eat some e46 M3s

Very nice! The 4.8's are great, but I have to say those chrome wheels don't do it any justice.

Congrats! Alpine white is my favorite color!
I currently have a 5 series in black, but looking into replacing it with an alpine white e46 m3.
