Russians are known for a variety of things but normal cars are not one of those things. Even the most basic Lada has to be tricked out over there, showcasing its character in one way or another. When you go higher in the range, you notice things go ever further.
So when one buys himself a BMW X5, he must turn it into an attractive, flashy beast. That’s exactly what the owner of this F15 X5 wanted and that’s what he got from DC Tuning.
Therefore, it was quickly wrapped in Electric Lime vinyl that surely makes it stand out. Sure, the Individual range could’ve provided that color but then it would’ve made the car a bit more expensive. It’s cheaper to go with vinyl and you can also remove it at any time you please.
Speaking of ‘electrifying’ crowds, this car was already wearing the most impressive packages you can get on the new SUV, the one that brings out too many M badges if you ask us (14, we counted). That’s right, this is an M Sport X5. You can tell by the huge air intakes on the sides of the front bumper and the tailpipes round the back.
However, we can’t say exactly what engine hides under that bonnet but if you really want to be a ‘boss’ in Russia, you have to get the range-topping model. That’s the xDrive50i, powered by a 4.4-liter twin-turbo V8 making 450 HP and 650 Nm (479 lb-ft) of torque, capable of hurdling you to 100 km/h (62 mph) in under 5 seconds. That’s a ‘real car for the man in you’ as the Russians would say.
