I've got an x5m only because my dad has always owned mustangs all his life and I need an suv. I wanted something sporty and aggressive but something I can throw all my crap in. I looked at Jeep, Audi, Volvo, Merc and even Honda but when I found the BMW in my price range, I fell in love when I test drove it. It gives in to the power fantasy and but is accommodating enough for anything. I detail boats for a company and the SUV lets me keep all my materials in the back with instant access. I always get a kick out of people seeing me roll up with this thing. They automatically think of sophisticated businessmen and I get out with a bunch of crap on my clothes, sunglasses with compound all over them, faded shirt and work boots. Its a "that's not what I expected look."

Did you seriously compare a BMW X5M to a Prius, RAV4 or Lexus (Toyota with cheap gold paint) RX? Are you serious? No credibility no idea, absolutely ridiculous to compare these in any way....🚮🚮🚮

Expensive to maintain and reliability?
@SchwayZ2 жыл бұрын
Maintenance is likely going to be on the more expensive side given my experience with similar Mercedes models. And when you factor in the M performance label, maintenance will likely cost even more. Reliability is also tricky. It's rated at average by JD power so it's not awful but it's also not a lexus

Consumer reports rates it 3.5/5 for the regular x5. This m version has the 4.4L V8 which could have a couple issues when they hit higher miles. Excessive oil consumption, fuel injector failure, leaking valve stems are some to note. Those can be fixed but the repair costs can be high for these vehicles

@@SchwayZ well the reliability concerns me aswell but I think the range super charger sounds better but it is not as quick as the Beemer, I am going to buy one and if that gives the slightest bother, I will sell it and go for this Beemer because I really finding it hard to make up my mind between the two, but have come to the conclusion that the range has more presence on the road than the Beemer

@@MrSupertings I had the Supercharged Range Rover and bought the BMW X5M and have never looked back. The BMW X5M is an absolute marvel to drive and the power is insane for an SUV. The X5M will walk away from Corvettes and bring you to triple digit speeds like no other. All while bringing your groceries home from the store. With that said, the Range Rover is an awesome vehicle as well, it's all about what you want and are looking for at the end of the day.
@hsmedsvik3 жыл бұрын
I’ve owned them both and would say buy the RRSS if you want a comfortable drive with the possibility for going offroad. You need it to be under warranty and the fuel economy of the supercharged vs the X5 M is about 40% better in the BMW despite of superior engine, speed and handling. The RRSS is a comfy SUV. The X5 M is a beast, basically a large M5 sportscar and accelerates, break and handles as one. I like the fact that most people think it’s a normal X5 but then it does 0-100km/hr (0-60) as fast as its generation M3. Only minus in my opinion is that the X5 M is a very stiff ride even in comfort mode, but that is part of owning an M car.
