Need some Verification on Picture, Please Help!

Dear fellow E90post members.

Recently a friend who isn't a BMW owner, sent me this picture telling me this car must be a new x5M that is 09+. So Fellow E90post BMW owners please chime in and give your opinions and thoughts below so I can put this to rest and he will be wrong for the rest of his life. And if I'm wrong then I really do not know my BMW's at all.

The taillights are from the LAST GEN 00-06 (I believe)
It might be a 4.8IS with M badging and such, but his California plates and Euro plate however do not I believe make it a M 09 in anyway.

I bet him it is a 00-06 YEAR, he said it is WAY too clean to be, but I believe almost 99% sure it is.

His arguement is: it is way too clean, it is M badged, iono whatever other reasoning.

My reason: Look at the bodylines and taillights, they are of the old generation and anyone can put a M badge on anything.

The million dollar question is: is it 00-06 YEAR 4.8IS or is it 09+ M model???

This is the picture he sent me, VERIFY what YEAR this is, and is it last generation X5 model.


Picture of a 4.8 IS



The million dollar question is: is it 00-06 YEAR 4.8IS or is it 09+ M model???
