X3, X5 & X6 (E53, E70, E71, E83) (2000 - current) BMW invented a new word when they introduced their SUVs to the world: Sport Activity Vehicle. Sportier and with more car like agility than the standard SUV, with all of the hauling perks for a more active lifestyle. Introduced in 1996, the X5 continues to be a hit. The younger sibling, the X3, was born in 2003.

Thanks... It turned out very well... I just wish I could have convinced her for the 22' PG3's but beggers can't be chosers. I have transformed the Mom into car nazi... I should hopefully be picking up an Estoril BLue M coupe this summer to go along with the Moms M3 Vert... If so there has been talks about going to AA with both of them

Parents rides yes(pops side) mom is the bmw nut ..The RT/10 is an 2001 but the GTS is a 96....I will not let them get rid of GTS...Seeing that I have put more miles on it than they have ... We used to have a 94 green and a 95.5 black with silver stripes. Although I think their viper days are long lived and soon will departing from the garage.

I'll get some pics of the new ride comming saturday. Just traded our brand new Land Rover dads wife put 1300 miles on it before she decided she liked the H2 better. I'll be sure to get some good pictures of that...

But for now here's a good picture of our Dayton to Daytona trip our university does every year after the seniors graduate.
Our buddies supra TT and the Hamann X5

Porsche also comes in Cheyenne S which is just a 4.5 liter V8 producing around 340hp....

and their base Cheyenne makes less than that....

But that twin turbo is sexy!

Cayenne is a insane SUV... At first I thought it was the worst thing in the world... after seeing it in person

Here's the H2... I am really not a fan of the way it drives...The lack of visiblity is horrid...I do like the looks and the "ride" of the car just would be better if i was in the passenger seat rather than driving... I just hope I catch the pops in his next frantic car buying day... he's in his "poor" feeling stage right now
