We took delivery of our X7 in Grigio Telesto on Ivory M50i.

robbys3m3 · 02-23-2021, 06:57 AM

Featured on BIMMERPOST.com

The weather finally cleared up so I could go pick up my wife's new m50i, and sell a friend her msport 40i at the same time. Once again Brett at Autohaus in STL was awesome and even though we didn't trade in the 40i, he got my wife's Savini 22's mounted on her new car while I waited. We had custom ordered this same color scheme, but this was able to be located in the meantime.

We are loving grigio telesto on the x7 and the ivory interior is striking...please say a prayer with us having 3 kids under 10

. As you can see we kinda like these gray tones at the moment

. Tomorrow it gets ppf, ceramic coating, ind front reflectors, and the lowering links reinstalled. A couple thoughts from my delivery and 300 mile drive...

-the 40i power was fine but this power reminds us of her previous X85 X5M
-having exhaust tone again is awesome..actually would like to add more
-the B&W stereo is awesome but we hadn't ordered it on our build...still not sure I would but it does sound great
-this unit has a trailer hitch. You can't unsee it, but it is what it is. I'm surprised there isn't an integrated cover for it honestly

Woot! Beauty there.

Olekiller · 02-23-2021, 09:25 AM

My goodness that's a fine car

BMWBear · 02-23-2021, 09:25 AM

Very nice. Love gray cars and it was difficult for me to purchase something different this time around. That’s a great looking color.

robbys3m3 · 02-23-2021, 09:54 AM

thanks all. I also saw dravit in the flesh on an x7 for the first time while at the dealer. I liked it a lot and outside of total sun has similarities to me to GT...granted I am colorblind

bmr760 · 02-23-2021, 09:59 AM

Gorgeous!

BMWBear · 02-23-2021, 10:39 AM

I just noticed your calipers are black. Was that an option?

Nevermind ..I see it's a no cost option.

Yes I agree but you can go from mild to wild against the gray and black. Really he can pick from countless customs options and most will look great.

GOLFFRR · 02-24-2021, 09:40 AM

looks awesome. great set up OP

r33_RGSport · 02-24-2021, 09:55 AM

Congrats!!!
I love Grigio Telesto color.
Got a chance to see it on my local customer's F95 X5MC.
It shift between Chalk to Nardo to Dark Grey from full sun light to night time.

Staszek · 02-24-2021, 10:09 AM

Looks awesome! Its funny you think the X7 is big but sitting next to the F150 and the Jeep it doesnt look that big at all.

When I drove it, it drove really small, I loved it. We are ordering one at the end of the year.

RyanBMW · 02-24-2021, 10:54 AM

Wow, that's a nice SAV, congrats OP!

Who needs lowering springs when you can adjust the height with OEM air suspension, that system can get lowwww!

s4awd · 02-24-2021, 12:03 PM

The X7 looks like a 3 series next to those behemoths. I'm not joking either as I was wondering where it was lol 😂

Luminor513 · 02-24-2021, 12:04 PM

Looks great w Grigio. Good luck w the ivory interior and kids. You can ceramic coat the leather to protect it.

djbonsu · 02-24-2021, 12:15 PM

With ceramic protection I think you'll be fine and be able to enjoy the ivory without worrying.

///M TOWN · 02-24-2021, 01:19 PM

Enjoy yourself ‼️

John-M007 · 02-24-2021, 02:34 PM

Congratulations! Beautiful car and a great color. Enjoy it!

Black caliper is an option at no cost. You get either blue or black.

Also, as of today the X5 will not get HK radio system, automatic soft close doors, active roll stabilizer, and cool/heated cup holders. They were removed for US market only. Basically you are going to spend $80K+ with having a regular basic radio. I think BMW has lost their minds.

On the 5 series they removed the Laserlights, automatic soft close doors, 4-zone climate control, and auto start/stop engine start. So everytime you stop your engine goes off and there is nothing you can do. Only again for the US market.
