When will anyone who has driven a G05 post a video

akhter · 09-06-2018, 05:38 AM

We had the launch so where are the press cars with drives ?

ScottMZ3 · 09-06-2018, 06:21 AM

The official US X5 press launch hasn’t happened yet. It’s scheduled for sometime during September in Atlanta, GA. I’m sure the videos/reviews will flood YouTube after that occurs. The exact date in September hasn’t been revealed yet that I can find.

I'd also be interested in getting a Vehicle Identification Number (or at least the last Digits) so that I can have a look at the online users Manual for the X5.

Should be a loaded X5 so that all features are described.

I wonder who will be the first person in this Forum to get their X5 delivered?

Here is a 2019 VIN for you: 5UXCR6C59KLK68994

I still have the X5 that originally had our name on it in our BMW "My Garage" page...so I can see its build status. It is currently "AWAITING CARRIER ASSIGNMENT". It is fairly loaded, but doesn't have M-Sport (which is why we had to get a later build). I don't believe this car has been pre-sold yet. Its destined to be a demo car for our dealer (unless someone swoops it before then).

Guess they havent been released yet, both the online Owners Manual and the iOS app say "There is no information in the Driver's Guide for this VIN". Thank you for the VIN though, will be nice to look through once it does come out!

Come across this on instagram, think this would be the closest you’re going to get, but looks like they are gearing up (M50d)

So here's something I noticed. When you download the Driver's Guide app, at the bottom of the page where it asks you to enter a VIN it says something like "download a demo vehicle." I did that and it appears to be most of the digital owners manual for the G05 X5.

That VIN is showing up on the VIN decoder sites with the various options.

Nice. I noticed that it did not have the dual air suspension switches on the console.

Which vin decoder site? I have the last 7 of mine and it isn't working anywhere.

So apparently the US release event is already on. Those guys were in Georgia.

Yeah, I wonder why there is zero news available about it (at least that I can find).

There's probably a press hold (or at least there is supposed to be).

BMWsOnly · 09-08-2018, 09:31 PM

Why are we unable to get the Display Key in the US? even in this video they have the key present.

I had the piano black in my 2014 Grand Coupe, it will scratch very easily. Keep this in mind if you get it.

I agree - it looks a little fussy and reminds me of houndstooth - if they offered something similar to rhombicle.

While the two videos provided a better sense of the vehicle... ugh at the camera work.
