For a while I was seriously thinking about getting an Audi A4. They're super nice cars and I loved the idea of having the quattro AWD.

As it happened, I got a BMW X5. I know that SUV's are taking over the world, but trust me, they can come in very useful in Canada's winter weather; so far I've been pretty impressed with the X5's XDrive (or whatever they call it). I love this car. It's a little low on power becuase of the 3.0 engine but its still lots of fun to drive.

I'll most likely keep it stock except for tinting the windows and probably installing a sound system. Maybe even some subtle body work but I'm not big into all that. If anyone has any suggestions (keep in mind I'm really not about the show-offy, super-pimped vehicles) please drop me a note. I'd love some ideas.

So here's my new baby.

This is the only area I think I would add some body work. Either a more aggressive front end or some brush guards.

Chrome tipped exhaust would add a nice touch I think.

My brother's photoshop rendition of what I should do to my car. It's a little too "gangster", too lowered, for me. It sort of looks like a station wagon this way...
