Daily driver x5 m50i, x5m, or x4'm

BIMMERPOST
     Featured on BIMMERPOST.com
I got the option to build an x5m or x4m for my daily. My question from the group who's owned all these cars.

Would I be happier keeping the x5 m50i. Or getting an x4m to match my m4, or try for an x5m?

Thanks for input

X4m in speed yellow with fiona red interior. It'll be like you're driving your own car but on stilts.

I drive a G83, my wife has an X3M and we also have an X7 for family duty. Depends on what you need, but the X4M and G8x are too close to each other. If I want to just take it easy and cruise in silence and comfort, I grab the keys to the X7. Obviously, my X3MC does not fit that bill.

Had a 22 X5M and a 22 X5M50

now just have a 23 X5M50

if that says anything

you want something different that what you already have
The X5M is badass but the M50 will give you a little more comfort from the full M car and sometimes that's nice to have

You have been creating what vehicle to buy threads every other month. What happened to the last X5 which you took delivery couple of months ago.

EDIT: Looks like you got a couple of them just this summer.

Soon V8's will be gone forever.

Keep your X5 M50 or upgrade to the X5M. Don't even bother with the X4M. Plus those things are horrendous looking. Even worse than the G8x grill.

Maybe he wants his rep and thread counts to go up a lot in this forum so he can be a 5 star General...lol (if that is even possible in this forum)

I thought it was Sao Paulo Yellow as Speed Yellow isn't available in South Carolina. And that was when his handle was X4M Ghost

He prefers to crowd-source decision making. Definitely not my style but I know a lot that do these days.

It's really not a conspiracy stop being stupid and arrogant. I ask for advice from the bmw community.
The reason I post on the m3/4 thread is because I want from a performance stand point.

Also If you actually took the time to look at why I cancelled it because bmw replaced the main block under the recall and wouldn't offer me a warranty if I kept it

I wasnt trying to be arrogant but was trying to understand the rationale of these threads.

Looks like you bought two X5 m50i this summer and also had X3m, X4m, X6m orders in the past which you ended up cancelling. If you share why you chosen these vehicles in the past, it would help people to understand your situation more. You had also created threads in the past asking opinions for the same exact vehicles and this is not the first time. Was there any conclusions from those threads?

You also had Tiguan & Outback in the mix and also had thoughts about selling your M4. And all these happened within the last year.

Yes. I have a problem waiting for cars to get built. Then bad luck.

Just seems like he's a serial thread creator just asking for advice nonstop. I wonder if he actually buys any of the cars he posts build sheets for....
