  What an amazing car!! - 2002 BMW X5
  By Touchdown - June 25 - 2:00 am

  Seriously looked at the M320 before a friend recommended that I check out the X5. Never really noticed it before and thats because so few of them are on the road. Started researching and went to the dealership to check it out. Its was love at first sight. Had to have this car. After the longest two months, drove it the first day nonstop for 6 hours straight! Unbelievable! Looks and finish are like no other on the road with the exception of the new 7 series. Handling and safety features are also like no other. In addition, its an attention getting for sure (even from M drivers!) and truly a blast to drive which is surprising with a car this size and weight!

  Nice Ride - 2002 BMW X5
  By AXEL - June 18 - 2:00 am

  I have had my X5 for 4 months now and have put 9000 miles on it. I have had no mechanical problems and have been impressed with how nice it is to drive in town and on the highway. I have a couple of little glitches, bad wiper blade on rear wiper and a piece of the ceiling liner not tucked perfectly into the overhead console. I think that BMW has a tendency to overdesign its cars but this doesnt necessarily result in the best reliability. If you want the least amount of trouble generally a Japanese vehicle is the best choice. If you want safety, solidity, and by far the best driving experience buy BMW. Thats what the X5 is about.

  By Tuan - June 14 - 2:00 am

  Safety! You feel very relax, it give you a sense of the surrounding, and it performance and handling informs you the vehile every move. Tested several SUVs including Mercedes ML, nothing come close to the X5! Highly recommended...

  The one for me! - 2002 BMW X5

  Of all SUVs the X5 is above and beyond. I call it a high riding sedan, theres nothing truck-like about it in that it gives a smooth ride and handles curves well.

  Not Bad - 2002 BMW X5
  By G. Balack - May 1 - 2:00 am

  I have the X5 3.0, 5 speed. My 94 Explorer cannot compare to this vehicle. My X5 has great handling, very comfortable and not bad on gas. At first I did not like it (which was strange), but the more I drive it I liked it more. Great Vehicle.

  4.6L- Unbelievable - 2002 BMW X5
  By Buckeye - April 16 - 2:00 am

  Just picked up the X5 4.6L about a week ago. The only word to describe it is unbelievable. The 20 inch rear tires are quite a sight from a trailing vehicles perspective, and that is the most likely view the majority of other vehicles are going to get. Incredible handling and acceleration. Interior finish is also superb.

  improvements needed - 2002 BMW X5
  By scheffv - April 11 - 2:00 am

  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.
