The BMW X5 4.6is is the BEST BMW SUV ever made

[@jarletronerud]

I also love this generation, not just X5, but most BMWs

[@voodoocars2134]

Still got mine after 10 years. Superb vehicle. Stands out from the usual stuff on the road.

[@HaJassar]

I remember going to the BMW dealership as a highschool kid with my friend and sitting in this car, brand new.. we lusted over it and drooled. What a time it was.

[@mahmoud-bakheet]

I know the smell you're talking about because I have a bmw X5 4.4i 2006 and i love it to death .

[@Theprofessionalsurgeon]

OMG I HAVE THIS SMELL OTO IN MY x5 V8 4.8 IS 2006!!!

[@paullawrence6606]

the X5 carries the beautiful finesse of the E46 which still is one of the best designed BMWs still today.

[@affonsoh95]

I had this one in miniature as a kid. Still a gorgeous SUV. Timeless design.

[@thedetailingdoctor5746]

I’ve owned one of these for years phenomenal car hugely underrated

[@ericB3444]

That button wasn’t an e brake. The actual brake is right next to it. It’s lock and unlock.

[@starbai3619]

It’s up there. But seriously a b58 go5 x5 is arguably the best car on the road today. It’s absolutely fantastic at doing everything well.

[@Mlippy]

Really? No way. The RR Sport is much better. And as an owner of one, no, reliability isn't bad. In fact it's been great (I'm talking about the 2018-2023 gen L494 facelift)

[@mahmoudghoneim8004]

Had this exact car in black and red interior, it was a great car at its time.

[@dorianthomas8310]

This was a great looking car.. CLASSIC!

[@shanewilfon6860]

U have the best review thank you for covering older much nicer cars❤

[@ЭдуардМокунев]

Я из России на БМВ уже 25 лет,начал с е34,сейчас у меня е36и е53.была бы моя воля,купил бы ещё е53с любым мотором,обожаю эту машину❤

[@jonathondeeds3423]

My 4.6is is in Nigeria i miss it badly. Mine is in silver with comfort seats and double glazing.

[@MrDesmondyaw]

i have my 4.8is in Ghana too and miss mine so much i love this SAV

[@liamross3098]

Rear cup holders at the back of the centre console 👍🏻

[@ethanbowie3050]

that was the glorious era of BMW BRAND. MR CHRIS BANGLE made the best designes and he fixed the brand s identity that we miss today. classy and timeless shape that will never die. never. we tune undlesly the machine and keep it alive. GREAT SUV.....STUNNIG REVIEW.

[@agusgounaridis3350]

These cars were not designed by chris bangle. He came later and made the e9x 3 series and e60 5 series

[@Astke]

Will never die? I like BMW but this did not age that well at all.

[@Cashewoutside55]

Two black first gen X5Ms are in the background at 15:34 👍🏼

[@BlaccCeaza]

X5 is my baby❤

[@thedetailingdoctor5746]

It was actually developed by the M division then cancelled and rebadged at the last minute it has an alpina engine with reworked heads and cams by M

[@lc76nz30]

Whats wrong with the wooden trim over the silver trim? Dry and cracks?

[@ivanditlopo4621]

I love the 4.8is dream car

[@jimj2683]

Best looking SUV ever. They should have just continued to update this design like Porsche does with their 911.

[@andrzejkulakowski]

A facelifted 3.0D with stage1 is missing only one thing - a pintle mount mg42 on the roof top :D

[@abstractobject5337]

I have two E53 X5s and about to get two more plus a 2018 Hybrid.

[@Viking8888]

I have a 2004 X5 in grey, but with the 3 liter straight 6. I love mine. The design was and is gorgeous. BMW designs now are just weird and make no sense. Especially with the monstrous grills.

[@rafaellastracom6411]

To draw off a Star Wars line, an elegant vehicle from a more civilized time. You are right to rate this SUV so highly. It is a combination of both nostalgia and BMW excellence, the likes of which we have not seen in a while from this once stellar manufacturer.

[@Astke]

it still makes great cars, design taste aside.

[@rafaellastracom6411]

Life is too short to drive ugly cars. Especially those whose design aesthetic is best defined as caricature.

[@Astke]

Well just your taste in the end. I don't feel anything for these for cars. There is no nostalgia, just dated design. It has not aged well imo.

[@rafaellastracom6411]

@@Astke There is good taste and then there is bad taste.

[@Astke]

​@@rafaellastracom6411 That... is just another subjective statement.

[@laweenalbotany1734]

Am gonna have 1 one day use to own an e39 it's timeless design

[@ZhiqiSevenseven]

beautiful car

[@yass123]

A relative got an E53 X5 back in 2000.

[@Perceni]

it is a beautiful suv

[@FirstLast-ge4yd]

the 4.8is has entered the chat..

[@ethanbowie3050]

girls loves this suv!!!......💋........and i mean what i say.😁 it was just...wow!

[@amicrazy195]

Got one

[@artbystjepan]

I stil have a little car toy in same color ❤

[@Necro-s]

Same music as TopCars TV

[@jayc3316]

I have the exact same car same color everything bought the car but I had bad luck with it if any one is interested in this vehicle please lmk now, unfortunately I couldn’t find anyone to fix it for me so it has been park in my garage for 5 years.

[@geminithekid]

It looks like an e46

[@steadybreeze1443]

Crayon smell only in hot climate don’t have that smell in Canada .. Florida yea Melting plastic Btw ERA. Not Area

[@BobsGT235]

Nice video. The smell you mention about the interior is called old car smell. It happens to all cars around 25 years old. In a few years, it will start to smell like moth balls.

[@jonathondeeds3423]

Clearly you have never smelled the inside of a brand new BMW 20 years ago, it a very unique smell and not the old car smell you refer to, modern new cads just smell like disposable plastic bags while BMWs back in the day smell like hide and wood.

[@khalilhasan2004]

the latest x5m looks better

[@andrzejkulakowski]

[@ChesterTheGm]

stop.

[@khalilhasan2004]

@@ChesterTheGm this looks great but it looks like a sized up e39

[@ethanbowie3050]

jakpot 😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@MrGts92]

😂😂😂

[@joesmith9216]

They rule, but sorry, E83 all the way, so much more nimble and better rear.

[@Astke]

Best ever made? Relax. It does not even look that great.

[@KatK707]

I respectfully disagree, this is literally the worst x5 design in the 2000s, always looks like a disfigured house

[@ellomirza]

Agree and disagree. The 4.8 is a much more modern motor. But this definitely is the best looking one. The body is taut and simple but interesting. All subsequent X5 look like they have puny little wheels even with 22 inch rims. They look like ugly bloated minivans.

[@aidenp5768]

It’s the negative camber in the rear that you see on X5s without 20s that make them look horrible, but a well kept and maintained X5 with 20s changes the look entirely. Sucks that 90 percent of e53s on the road today are clapped
