Is the 2021 BMW X5 M Competition the BEST performance SUV for the price?

[@kickazzdrummer666]

That's the most gorgeous shade of metallic blue I've ever seen.

[@redzoom7857]

Same

[@polarbear353]

I was thinking the same thing.

[@oopopp]

I've have an Acura with the same metallic blue...

[@sophalawson6337]

Me too

[@johncorbin5332]

Its called phytonic blue

[@mithilesh]

By far, you are one of the best car reviewers I have seen. You keep the energy high, provide unbiased and detailed commentary, love all the “zonks” of course, and just do a fantastic job filming all of the right parts of the car. The transitions are great, and the broader narrative of all of your reviews are easy to follow. Almost every time I watch a review from Raiti’s Rides, it makes me want to buy a new car lol! Great job to you and Lori for bringing some of the best reviews on KZbin- they’ve been great. Thanks again guys!

Love your videos Joe - very addicting! You and Lori are honestly the best automotive review team on KZbin...by far! And it’s not even close brother.

[@tucker2604]

My all-time favorite vehicle given the respect it deserves by a man that equally shows his capability. You are appreciated again! Lori, you complement the team with your talent!

"It's about the smiles per mile." LMAO! You should be a comedian for real. It comes so naturally.

[@harishaithavakumar2181]

That blue is mind-blowing, especially in certain angles.

[@RaitisRides]

Now that is one heck of a list!

[@iMixMaSteR1]

@Liberty Even 50% off that's still a lot for a car that's going to need heavy maintenance.

@Liberty Absolutely they're incredible machines, but very few can afford them.

Better start investing in crypto. Just beware right now, market seems on the low.

I know, so weird, but my late Nana used to say the same as you.....she didn't care the size of door bins, centre console, it was how many Snickers, or Twinkies you could fit in them.....best car reviews on KZbin....thanks for always bring8jg back memories!!

Why you didn't show the extra display on the windshield in dark? Old bmw x5 can show only speed number and modern models show even Google map.

[@RaitisRides]

That is a great question Mark!

[@noelsilva8887]

I would not want carbon fiber side mirrors but it a option if u want it. I like the gloss because it matches everything else.

[@Shane-h4uu]

I agree the paddles should be bigger and metal. I replaced the same ones in my X3 m40i with larger metal ones and I noticed the ones I took off it seems they went the extra effort to put plastic on the back as the front is finished in the nice metal. I’m in TX so after I replaced it and got in my car later that day the paddles were hot! So it might’ve been a design choice to go with plastic backed paddles to ensure they’re good for hot weather... that being said I’d still zonk the plastic and go with large metal ones

[@RaitisRides]

Thanks for sharing that great input mike!

[@digitaldoc100]

The red paddles on the steering wheel look like they would fire off a missile in a Bond film.

Nice review Joe. What do you recommend the x5m or the Audi SQ8 ? And why . Thanks

[@RaitisRides]

I would go X5 M

[@joehoffrage]

I have to disagree with Joe, I’d say SQ8 cause more attractive, better interior and way better ride and versatility

[@haviiithelegogunner907]

Just a stage 1 tune with Vmax open and this SUV will easily run over 180 mph. There has been a case last week that a X5M competition has been lasered with 307 km/h in a 130 km/h zone ok the A7 Autobahn in northern Germany. :D Spendid presentation, again!
