Review
I have owned 6 different 3s and bought the suv for my wife because she wanted a suv.
I have had good luck with my other BMWs but this X5 was the worst thing I have ever owned. It does have power and does drive more like a sports car then a suv but the thing was the worst built car I have ever owned. Everything that could go wrong has.
I had a few friends that worked at the dealership and they told me they are junk but I already had purchased it and was stuck with it. After I started having problems I did some googleing and found tht everyone has the same problems. I am
about to post it on craigslist for parts. I will never own another BMW. Crappy service too.

Finish and quality of materials is first class. Performance is awesome! It handles in curves like any other BMW X5 or X6.

This has been a very good car. It now has 120000 miles. The only thing other than reg maint was the transfer case/transaxle was replaced at about 75000 miles. This wasn't under complete warr. BMW shared the cost even though strict maint had been documented. At 117000, I installed a new alternator . It cost 350.00 which was a deal compared to the 750.00 that BMW wanted. I did the labor myself. I repair cars for a living so I keep very good maint schedules on my stuff.

The BMW X5 is attractrive not only
for it's safety features but it
perfomance. My X5 is scary fast still
drives like new and I have never ever
had a mechanical issue. I will drive
this car as long as I could.

In 4 years and 49000 miles this car
has been in the shop for a repair just
twice, both under warranty. The car
is as tight and fun to drive as the
day I bought it. I never keep cars
after the warranty has expired, but in
this case I am making an exception. I
can't find another car I like any
better, and it is so good I figure
maybe to save a little money and stay
with it for another year or so.

This is the best SUV I have owned yet.
A few minor issues, but considering how
much is packed into this vehicle, I
have no complaints. Extended warranty
is probably a great investment. And of
course....let's not forget the tax
benefits.

I owned a Corvette and a 4X4 Jeep Grand
Cherokee SUV until I purchased my X-5.
The BMW combines both vehicles into one.
It handles like the covette and has the
utility of the Grand Cherokee. I will
never by anything else.

The BMW of sport-utes earns its stripes
with outstanding handling and
acceleration, coupled with class-
leading ride quality and way above
average fuel economy. My 2000 has
never been in the shop other than for
scheduled maintenance. At 42000 miles
the tires have another 20,000 in them,
and the front brakes were just replaced.

IT'S A DREAM TO DRIVE WHETHER ITS CROSS
TOWN OR CROSS-COUNTRY. TERRIFIC
TRACTION IN ALL-TERRAIN. PLENTY OF
ROOM TO COMFORTABLY RELAX AND ENJOY THE
RIDE. MANUEVERS LIKE THE 5 SERIES
SEDAN AND WITH ALL THE PUNCH OF M-
SERIES.
IT'S HARD TO IMAGINE IT CAN GET ANY
BETTER THAN THIS!
