Look at it this way Anita,
Now you can get a recent model used, and save on the MSRP.

Well the silver lining in your grey cloud is that (if you don't mind buying used) the price of an FX45 went down when they came out with the new FX50! Maybe you just need to go down to your local BMW dealership and test drive an X6 M...

I most agree on this one.
The most cool looking truck on the road is the x6 right now.
On the other hand i'll look at new acura MDX & the GMC acadia
Dakar was just the begining.

ANITA! POST FAIL! NO PICS!
What? A Forester? No way. I would take a Forester XT over that any day. Just talked my mom into getting one and she is loving it. Especially with that snow we just had.
Though, mine would have to get the "royal" STi swap treatment.

x3 - I previously owned a 2005 FX35 and almost bought a 2006 FX35 a few months ago but decided I wanted something with a lower monthly payment (hence the wife's Axiom). I don't know if you test drove any of the previous gen FX's, but here's some thoughts in case you do look into the used market.Well the silver lining in your grey cloud is that (if you don't mind buying used) the price of an FX45 went down when they came out with the new FX50!

1. Interior was dramatically updated for 2006.
2. Look for one with both the sport and technology packages. This gives you sharper handling plus all the tech goodies like navi, intelligent key (touch the handle to unlock, push button start), etc.
3. IMHO, the 4.5L engine isn't worth the extra $6K they were charging at one time for it. You can get any standard FX45 item as an option on the 35, and having driven both, I can tell you that the only difference (besides worse MPG) you'll feel is when slamming the pedal to the floor from a complete stop. The 3.5L engine is a beast on its own (heck, they put it in the 350Z and G35), plus it doesn't have the oil consumption issues of the 4.5.
I absolutely loved my 2005 FX35, so I definitely think you'd enjoy owning one. Hope that helps!
