Review
My 6th BMW. Best feature: EASILY
the most comfortable ever for a a long
drive (lumbar support seats are
fantastic). Next, sedan handling and
performance. I've achieved a better
time than the 528i over my fav route of
hiways and country roads. Most annoying
feature: the AWFUL tinny noise when
shutting the door. Biggest SMALL
annoyance - unreliable warning LCD
icons e.g. is a breakdown imminent or
is it simply an icon fault (again).
Great fit & finish but qual of BMW
materials declines yearly (like
others). Best was my '85 325E. Still
luv 'em. I went to MB once(300 coupe).
Soulless - a big mistake. MB briefly
had my brain; BMW will always have my
heart. Cor

I have had basically good experience
with my X5. I am a sport driving
enthusiast and this is my family and
commuting vehicle. As an SUV only the
price for the functionality is kind of
high. But, I like to drive. This one
has the sport package. Basically, I
gave up nothing in the fun to drive
and handling areas to have the utility
of an SUV like vehicle. It is fine to
drive, unlike the wallowing beasts
that other makers put out as SUVs. I
hope I can drive this until the wheels
fall off.

Great driving vehicle. Terrible
electronics. Always something wrong.
Automatic settings for seats,
mirrors,etc. only work 50% of the
time. Been back to several dealers
many times - no one can fix it.

After two years, I know we made the
right decision. I only wished that we
decided to purchase the X5 in lieu of
the M CLass first. If you are looking
for a SUV with performance and looks in
one package, the X5 is the only one for
you. If you are serious on buying the
X5, dig a little more in your pocket
and get the 4.4L since it offers more
punch and standard equipment. If you
add all the standards on the 4.4
compared to the options in the 3.0 for
the same car, you will see that it is
only a bit more. Believe me,you will
not be disappointed!!! Happy driving!!!

Other than dealing with a small cargo
capacity, the X5 has been our most
favorite car ever owned.

I love everything about this SUV.
Except for its electronics. I have
winter, sport, navigation, dsp ... etc.
I have 30K on this SUV, and so far it's
been a disappointment. My passenger
sideview mirror fell off, my door does
not open and close at times, windshield
special wipe doesn't work properly,
radio/dsp doesn't work (NO SOUND!!!)
Doors, warning flasher, reading lamps
comes on for no reason when driving.
2002 X5! What a disappointment! Don't
buy this SUV!

Fast and good handling as long as the
road is bone dry. Slides on wet roads
even with anti skid. Snow is the
worst. Doors and windows freeze shut
in sub freezing weather. Locking
system is impossible. Pieces of
molding fall off. No where near worth
the high cost.

I purchased a predriven X5 and love
it. The quality and reliability of BMW
afforded me the confidence to by a pre
driven car and not have the worry.
I came out of a van and was ready for
a luxury car but wanted the style of
an SUV. I will keep this car for a
long time!

I absolutely love my X5. Before I
purchased my X5 I drove a few other
luxury SUVs and found that the X5 was
the best overall in handling, comfort
and performance.
