X5 M???????

[St Lunatic]

Hey peeps

As i was leaving Sandton Isle BMW i noticed a X5 driving through the traffic with different bumpers on. We pulled up to the robot on Grayston and Rivonia and it had an M badge on the side so i thought it must be a 4.8i with a kit on or something. The robot turned green and i gave some gas and OMG did that X5 fly past me, with a sound i know to well.

Then i noticed the M badge on the back with 4 pipes like the M's

Now does BMW make an X5 M???????? and If so where can i pick one up?

Yep it's true... theres an X5M & an X6M. Not my cup of tea but they sure as hell fuck off like no-ones business, only seen the X6M go and it's mighty impressive for a barge boat:excited:

Drove one the other day, the white one used for the media. Caught in two minds really. Yes it hauls, but for 1.2 bar I'd wanna feel the rush of going really quick. It left me with a sour taste, not too sure if I'd ever buy one if had the spare cash. Well engineered though.
