So long time Bimmer reader - finally deciding to retire my G and move up to a X5 xdrive 5.0. I found one at the local dealership black on black with the options I have been looking for (premium, cold weather, 20s). 2013 (manf April 2012) with around 70K miles. So on paper seems good - but been trying to get more pictures (the interior ones are awful on the website) it has been in the shop. Okay - the sales guy called me today and told me the engine is being swapped and the turbos.

He doesn't know the new warranty (not surprised he's a sales guy) but I don't know enough about the 4.4/268 engine to know if they even have a new engine to replace it with (from what I've read this year was the last of the old model and now replaced with a newer version).

So gurus - what are your thoughts? I am planning to test drive regardless just to get a feel for this model year. They are also raising the price by $3K. Should I listen in around the warranty or is this a bad idea and just keep looking?
