- Skyscraper grey, Tartufo extended leather, Fineline open pore wood trim
- Packages: Executive, M Sport, M Sport Pro, DAP, Park assist, DHP, climate comfort
- Options: B&W, leather dash, spare tire, trailer hitch
Prior to this, I have had 5 series, 7 series (23 760), X5 G05 (pre and LCI) and I am so far impressed by the X7. Way quieter and better ride than my 24 X5. I also like it better than my 760. I prefer the more "traditional" interior of the X7 than too much tech and pizzazz in your face in the current 7 series (not to mention SUV driving position is more fun for me).
DHP for me was a must mostly because of rear wheel steering given how big this car is but I assume it impacts handling/ride too and this car has been great over the past couple days in that department.
First time getting this color and it is growing on me. Wanted something a bit lighter that is not white.
Also first time getting the B&W. Always skimped on this in my past bimmer orders as I thought its too much money but now that I have it, I think it is well worth the money. Way more detail and clarity can be heard through the B&W system that is lost on the HK.
One comment on the leather dash option, IMHO not worth it. I had the base dashboard on my 24 X5 and now leather dash on X7. I can barely tell the difference that would justify the $ difference.

And I thought I changed cars often, remember you from our chats on the 7 series forum. Great looking ride, can’t go wrong with the X7. It’s been on my shortlist for a while but ended up trading the 760 for a XM instead
