Extra options
🎥 WATCH (copy/paste): https://youtu.be/36JwM-YpQj8
Here we have the very rare & desirable E53 2006 BMW X5 4.8iS with the big 4.8L N62 V8. Before the X5 M came along, this was the rare range topping E53 X5. The truck is in good condition with low kilometres. It is fully loaded with all the options that this original M-model comes with. It has been very well maintained over the years with some minor issues that need to be addressed.
The current owner is the 4th owner of the truck. It started its life in Illinois, United States.
The car is said to have seen only 1 winter since new. It also has a clean no accident history. Clean CarFax attached.
When this car gets going in sport mode with the manual shifting activated, it is an absolute blast to drive. These 4.8iS' are getting increasingly harder to find these days in proper condition. They are highly desirable enthusiast SUV's. The 4.8iS started in 2004 replacing the 4.6is as the top of the line E53 X5.
