My New F15

Kakalika · 06-06-2019, 08:57 PM

I just picked up a new (to me ) X5 35D. The last of the diesels?
This is my 4th X5. Had 2 E70's and an F15 35i.

It's nice being in an F15 again, especially a diesel. I have diesel flowing in my veins.

I'm not really feeling those black 21" Style 215's. Looking to replace them soon. I prefer an aluminum wheel to provide a contrast.

Sorry she is not too clean, been raining.

Loaded with Comfort seats front and rear, Rear entertainment, apps, Harmon, ventilated seats (Not the best performers). No surround view though, but I hope to retrofit, as another forum member here did.

Loving the 8 speed transmission with the diesel. My diesel E 70's had the 6 speed.

First mod will be to transfer the Invisihitch from my E70 to this F15. Oh, and to get rid of those orange reflectors!!

Congrats with the new ride and welcome to the club!

I got my f15 yesterday and looking for tune now.

Congrats on the truck!! Looking good!

Looks good. I just pulled the trigger on a 35i but was so close to getting the diesel. Gotta love that torque. Enjoy.

Congrats on the last diesel.

Saphire Black. I ended up just painting the reflectors.

Ouch.
But hey, if you are happy with the outcome, we are happy.

I actually am normally not a black wheel fan - at all. But they work on yours. I can get into them with the blackout look and those wheels have enough "see thru" that they work for me. Maybe debadge the sides and paint the reflectors and rock the KnightRider look for a bit and see if it grows on you.

Sharp ride!

Did anyone receive a loyalty discount or BMW financials discount on their used F15. Looking at a 2017 and working on discounts plus NC gives currently.

Looks clean. Congrats.
I was thinking turning my 35s in and find me a clean diesel one.
