2025 X5 Dravit Grey 40i w M sport
Vehicle currently on order. Tartufo interior.
What should we do to this when it comes - ceramic coat, PPF, other? Want to bring out the warm/lighter tones in the paint. Don’t know yet what dealer offers. Pics welcome as I’ve only seen this color once IRL and it wasn’t on an X5. Thanks! |

There are multiple posts here about the benefits & difference between PPF (protection from rock chips) & ceramic coating (easier to keep car clean).
You don't want anything the dealer offers except perhaps wheel coverage - depends on your roads & ability to keep the wheels away from curbs! In fact, have them do as little as possible to the car during dealer prep as that is where many of the paint issues start - swirls, scratches, etc. Good luck & enjoy the new ride!
