I think this is the perfect family car. It drives and handles exceptionally well, very impressive considering its bulk and its weight. The car is very well designed inside and out, with beautiful styling and well laid out controls and panels. Just like an iPhone or a Mac Powerbook, you can easily tell by using it that the designers & engineers have thought of EVERYTHING when they made this vehicle. I think of it as an understated high performance luxury car that got everything right. I bought mine fully optioned AND with 3rd row seats, so it can haul a lot of people if needed but still handles very well. It has been a pleasure driving and using it.
I recently purchased the 4.4i version of the x5 and the acceleration is amazing. The interior wears well and looks great and the air cools and heats within seconds of turning the truck on. The interior space for passengers is great but the cargo area could use a bit more width. The only real negative about the truck thus far is the ride. I know it has a sport suspension but I can feel every bump in the road hence making the ride horrible as if I just purchased a mini or sports car. I just turned in a landrover LR3 2006 and I must say for the same amount of money it has a MUCH better ride and similar acceleration. BMW is much less to fix for breaks and such but I'm a bit disappointed in the ride and Dallas streets. Great turning radius and a fantastic full sliding glass roof with a great record on reliability. Landrover was for me too so if I had to choose again....the BMW comes in a close second.
I have had an X3 for 5 years and I have two children, two dogs , myself and my husband. We were grown out of the X3 completely. I was originally going to purchase an Acura MDX and test drove it idk how many times. I've always wanted to upgrade to an X5 but didn't think financially it was a good idea. Then I met Dave Cormany and AJ (manager in Davie FL). I told them I felt like the Acura felt kind of like a toy car driving it and really wanted an X5 but didn't think they would have one that was affordable. I was wrong! Thank god I said something because it just so happened they had a few of them reasonably priced and that was the end of that.
