    We went from a Jeep Cherokee limted to an X5. The X5 is made for performance more than luxery. Some items that I would add are a screen that displays the gas milage left, and direction headed. The car is very fast, and comes with blinds for the back windows.

While driving not knowing where i was going, i felt like a king, this is due to the high quality comfort i got. i cant wait to take it off road. I guss my Boxter is goin to be in the garage for a while.

    Not much to say.....best driving vehicle on the road regardless of price. Fit and finish is impecable and interior ergonomics are near perfect. Would recommend to anyone looking for the ultimate suv/sav.

  • Whats not to like. - 2002 BMW X5

    I was asked if I like my X5 and my reply was "whats not to like". As in true BMW form the X5 is a fine automobile. I have nothing bad to say about this car and mostly superlatives when talking about it. The 4.4i engine is responsive and fast. The transmission is smooth as silk and matches perfectly to the engine.

    My only gripe is that the cupholders need to be able to hold 32oz bottles or cups. 12oz beverages are a German thing I guess. The performance is excellent and I highly recommend going to South Carolina to the plant to pick yours up. What an experience!

    This is my first BMW and I am never going to drive any other brand from now on. I love it, love it, love it! Although it may seem very pricey, it is well worth it. It has all the makings of a dream machine: speed, agility, luxury, and toys galore!(Im still finding little perks here and there). I got it with the Xenon lights, heated seats and steering wheels,auto-dim mirror and moonroof, all pricey features but you wont regret it because they are oh so nice! This car does all the thinking for you on the maintenance factor, all you have to do is enjoy the drive!
