Kinda wierd story. I order this exact model with all options minus the rear entertainment setup. 3 days ago I saw this on the dealers sister dealer in Beaumont Texas. They had put these rims on it which I love. It's funnt the dealer had order the same car essentially 2 weeks before I order the identical setup. My dealer is keeping my order but changing it up. My SA said the other dealer didn't want to release this one but a sale is a sale.

No, I'll leave it chrome. I don't want the whole "murder" look going.

Nice man!

Yeah I saw your X6M on the Beaumont floor when I was picking up my X5M. I noted the aftermarket BMW rims and was wondering how long it would take someone to snatch it up. Answer...very quickly. Congrats bud. See you around H-town.

I have opposite feeling. Love the red interior though.

So weird they had the same car I ordered... The rims do look great, thank you.

Gents, it drives so planted, fast and stable. Lots of rain in Houston today, no slipping, trying to get sideways etc. Drove just like a regular day. BMW did some great work on the suspension on this round of X5/X6M. I traded in an 15' X650i and the difference is quite great. The tranny works pretty well trying to be a DCT. I leave it in M mode and shift manually as I'm a manual tranny guy. It makes me feel much more connected to car. I love the FLIR as well, works great!

This thing is an all weather fighter bomber that kicks ass!

Congratulations on the beast! I've been trying to look out for a black one and so far this is the first one I've seen. Do you think you can take a couple more pics from a distance and of the front and back? I'm curious as to how the rear lights look on black. If theres enough of a contrast and also how visible the rear spoiler is on black. This color looks amazing though.

Can do. The spoiler does blend in with the blk/blk. IMHO a carbon fiber spoiler would contrast better with the jet black,
