This Year's Model Updates:

The high-performance X5 4.6is is discontinued. The 3.0i and 4.4i receive an exterior update, as well as a new all-wheel-drive system called xDrive. A six-speed manual transmission is now standard on the 3.0i, and a six-speed automatic is standard on the 4.4i. The 4.4i also receives a new 4.4-liter engine with Valvetronic and a fully variable intake system. Both models can add Sirius Satellite Radio and Bluetooth hands-free cell phone capability as dealer-installed accessories.

Pros:
  • Rides and drives like a BMW sedan, multiple drivetrain choices, top safety scores, high-end cabin furnishings.
Cons:
  • Less interior volume than a 5 Series wagon, price goes up quickly with options, poor fuel economy in the city.

    OUSTANDING COMFORT AND PERFORMANCE. TRADED CAYENNE WHICH HAD GOOD PERFORMANCE BUT FELL SHORT ON INTERIOR COMFORT AND EXTERIOR DESIGN. BMW X5 IS A DREAM CAR/SUV GREAT PERFORMANCE. IT SIMPLY ROCKS!!!!!

    After driving the ML320, the 3.0x5 is a more plush ride with more power.

    After reading the editors review & safety features I knew this auto would fit my expecting wife perfectly. Weve had it 3 days, she loves the style, luxury, sportiness & short tailgate. Im impressed with the handling & technical aspects. Much better fuel econ than my L. R. Discovery.

  • Imitated but not yet duplicated! - 2004 BMW X5

    For the $$, you get, "the smile factor". It gives you peep, comfort, safety and surefootedness in the snow AND the rain! Most of all it SCREAMS success without "trying too hard!" (Porsche, H2 and ML & G class drivers can relate.) The Range Rover is successful today BECAUSE it was REDESIGNED by BMW. Asked any BMW X5 driver and very few will complain about the practicality it lacks. X5 drivers like it because its prestigious, fast, luxurious and a blast to drive! Newer SUVs today offer nothing more but increase horsepower! Like I said, imitated but still not yet duplicated!

  • BMW X5 4.4 - 2004 BMW X5

    Ive now covered 5500 miles, with no problems, other than moisture appearing in the parking lights. After driving a 2000 528IA sedan for 3 years, I wasnt sure how Id feel about the switch to this SUV. After 3 days behind the wheel I was sold, and will probably never go back to a sedan again. This handles and rides like a BMW, but offers the typical function SUVs offer. Its luxurious, yet tasteful and not overdone

  • I LOVE THIS CAR!!!! - 2004 BMW X5
    By -

    I think this car is the best car built!!! It is a perfect family car yet still has that sporty look to it. It is a perfect road trip car just pile a bunch of people into it and your set to drive for hours. If your planning on buying this car DO IT!!!! It is the greatest thing.

    Handles better than most family sedans, high quality materials in and out, costs a little more than similar suvs but worth it.
