Have fun in your X5! I was reading your previous posts (the last being putting a deposit down on a X5) and am wondering why you chose the X5-especially after lusting over an Aero wagon. Wouldn't a 540 wagon be much more practical/utilitarian/fun-to-drive than an X5? The X5 does not offer much more room than a 5 series sedan (pathetic 16ft cargo space, seats up).
As far as foot size goes, carmakers have to cater to the average size person (with some leeway for small and large people-don't know the percentile size they shoot for) in relation to designing the ergonomics of their cars. Your foot size is probably in the 98th-99th percentile and just wouldn't be a practical statistical measurement for a carmaker to consider. Just like people under 4"9" are most likely out of luck.
