Well, we went ahead and got the 06 X5 3.0i with the Sport Pkg, Prem Pkg, Cold Weather Pkg, Climate Pkg, Auto dimming mirrors, and bluetooth. I picked up yesterday, it has a Stratus Grey exterior and a Beige interior with the brown wood trim.

I love it, drives much better than my practically base 04 X5. Sport Pkg. really made a definate plus in everything, love the wheels, steering wheel, trim, everything!

I will post pics later on tonight or early tommorow.

This forum helped me make a right decision on I car I don't think I will ever get rid of, thanks guys!

Well I am glad you like the sport package because I specifically didn't want it with my new X5 after having it in my current X5. Now I don't know how the 3.0i drives with the Sport package (less weight on the front?) but my 4.4i while it drove nice on smoth roads it just "jumped" too much on bad roads (and believe me in the Washington DC area we have nothing but bad roads). When I test drove the X5 without the sport package but with the 19 inch tires I felt it was the right compromise. To each its own however, enjoy your new X5.
