I've spent a LOT of my life (well over half, actually) living and working overseas in various locations. I agree with Resjudicata. If it's free, just ship it over. Warranty and even covered maintenance is a lesser issue. I've driven US-spec vehicles all around the world, including my old Jeep Grand Cherokee through Paris. (that was interesting) Now, if you're rolling in dough, sure, sell it, and buy a Euro model something when you get there. Otherwise, I wouldn't sweat the smaller issues (most of which can be addressed), and just take your X7.
I will say, driving Bimmers on their native homeland German autobahns is a BLAST. Truly what they were designed for. (yes, I realize our babies are made in SC)
