Take a long test drive

Purchased the X5 because it had the most headroom of any of the BMWs. Found the seats very uncomfortable and after a few 1000 miles, can confirm the criticism that the car lacks storage space. (The twin cup holder in the center console, which holds one cup of coffee, is a joke as demonstrated by the fact that there is now an after- market cup holder being sold for the X5.) Airbag light came on after 2,000 miles but am optimistic problem will be easily solved. Make certain you are comfortable with an SAV that is for carrying passengers, not stuff.

Solid So Far

I have had my X5 for about 8 months. It has been everything I had hoped for: fun to drive and comfortable. Everything is solid. Not a rattle or other problem (knock on wood). The paint job has been particularly impressive. I have taken a lot of rock hits at highway speeds, but I have not yet found one chip!

Best SUV Anywhere

This car is incredible! It only looks like an SUV but under the hood it is an M5 sports sedan. The car is truly a well thought out machine with amazing performance and looks. I have never come across another SUV that could out perform it except for the time I ran across an X5 4.6 on the highway, Wow that thing is blazingly fast!

The vehicle is awesome. Though some may cost less or have a little more cargo room, nothing compares...I know because I drove them as well. Anyone rating another higher must not appreciate true workmanship, engineering, and capability...you do get what you pay for.

Not a real BMW

This SUV is ideal for people who prefer fine looks,elevated view of the road and allwheel drive system. but this isn't for BMW or driving enthusiasts because it really isnt' a typical BMW. It's also built in America.
