looks like you'll need a 2nd floor on the garage

4.8is sounds great. Remove the mufflers and resonators and it absolutely growls.

Front and rear PDC is nice. I relied on the parking sensors in my 3-series, parking my parent's GLK in Fremont or Cap Hill is a nightmare without them.

Tell me more. I've been trying to find a good how to on Xoutpost. Sounds like a basic X-pipe muffler from Magnaflow (similar to the M5/M6 jobs) to straight pippes with twin tips would work

No kidding! My last X5 didn't and I hit crap. Now I turn them on when I'm pulling into my parking garage at work. Lifesavers!

Congrats on the little one. Almost bought a newer X5 myself before but wanted some bigger 3rd row seats.

Looks like you have the black wheel trend going on all your rides now.

How have you liked you H&R Sway bars?

vandersmith

They're great! Both are currently set to neutral. The car doesn't want to under or over steer any longer once I got the proper alignment/corner balance done. Haven't had to adjust them at all.

Cool. Ordering a set tomorrow. Thx!

Seems much simpler based on the video.

Man that thing sounds nasty! I'm not sure if I like a BMW that grunts/snorts

I found this one from that though that makes it seem pretty straight forward. Also, it has this awesome latino soundtrack:

The BMW resonator delete mods always seemed a bit harsh, maybe even too aggressive for dailying. I held off on doing it on my 3er because of that. Ended up getting the BMW performance intake, but no other powertrain mods.

My V10 M5 was straight piped with a Magnaflow resonator (common practice on M5board) and sounded unreal. The snort in that first video has me thrown off, the second one actually doesn't sound too bad. I'm also really not trying to put any money into this thing, it may be nice but its a friggin commuter

Looking good!

Wow, those headlights are intense.
