IND takes on the X5M. Development to come!
BMW is widely recognized as the company that transformed the concept of the four door car. The menacing acceleration of the first M5 super sedan, the shockingly sporting character of the standard 3 series, and of course the incredible capability of the M3 have made BMW a company that has redefined automobiles for a generation. In this same way, in 1999 BMW redefined the 4x4 truck segment with the launch of their brand new X5. BMWs unique approach shattered contemporary ideas of what a truck should be, giving BMW fans something that was luxurious in its interior appointments, comfortable when used as a daily driver, and an absolute adventure to drive when compared to offerings from Rover, Jeep, and Mercedes. Nothing was similar, and yet suddenly, the rest of the car building world was forced to take note and catch up. A decade after the release of the X5, BMW created their incredible X5M. This amazing machine has the absolute utility and comfort of an X5, with the otherworldly performance typically left to BMWs sports sedans. Once again, BMW had changed everything. With the release of the F85 X5M and the F86 X6M, BMW will once again work miracles to push the X5 further into uncharted territory. With even more power on tap, a beautiful interior, more dynamic suspension, and rumors of Nurburgring lap times that rival the E92 M3, the new X5M cars make this a great time to be an X5 fan. We at IND are extremely excited about the new X5M, and had to acquire one for ourselves. Bill Futey at BMW of Roswell is an avid M car enthusiast, and has owned an E92 M3 and F80 M3, both in BMWs striking Java Green color. Having worked with Bill in the past we knew that we could rely on him to help us obtain the exact X5M we wanted. Visiting BMW of Roswell also gave us the privilege of seeing a Dakar Yellow F10 M5, Bill's Java Green F80, and of course our Long Beach Blue X5M all in once place! We took delivery of our new X5M this Monday in its amazing Long Beach Blue color. In the coming months, IND will design and develop as many exciting components as possible for this incredible truck. We will work with our partners at AMS, RKP, ESS Tuning, HRE, and Fall Line Motorsports to enhance the already incredible X5M, and will follow BMW in their quest to build the best truck possible. Stay tuned for more updates from IND!
