2001 BMW X5 Review, Brad Hoffman, From Minneapolis


Add a review!

BMW X5


 Model of the car:BMW X5
 General comments:It's been a good vehicle so far. There are a few minor problems primarily the fault of the prior owner not being as picky as me. It's definitely lacking in cargo space, but it's about the classiest 4x4 on the road. The sport package is too stiff even for me. I wish I had gotten a non-sport and just added the wheels. Unlike most everyone else I like the navigation system.

I'm not sure why some people complain about the gas mileage. I routinely get 19 highway at 80-85mph. I even get 16 or so around town in mixed driving. I think that's pretty good. I've never gotten less than 14mpg.
 What things have gone wrong with the car:Very little cargo room.
Sports suspension rides rough.
Some wind noise around sunroof even when closed.
I've never like BMW's climate control system.
Over $63k is ridiculously expensive, but that's the price you pay for exclusivity.
 Previous car:Suburban, Tahoe, Explorer, Expedition, Excursion, 528i.
