X5 4.4
| | Model of the car: | X5 4.4 | | | General comments: | The price points on the X5 and 5-Series are similar. Why? Because 5-Series are real German built cars built in Germany. X5's are built in Indiana. You see!! Nothing is for free. If you want a good SUV, don't buy an X5. If you want to buy BMW, buy one of their cars, they're fantastic, amazing cars (I have always owned BMW’s). If you want an SUV that is very reliable and some minor Towing, you need to buy into Lexus or Toyota. If you want massive towing power, buy GMC. If you want a Mini-Van that looks like an SUV, anyone will do, just look for the best price. The X5 is a good car, but you're much better off just buying a 5-Series sedan. It handles fine in the snow & rain. It has all kinds of traction control technology. I live in Chicago and go through Chicago winters with ease in my 5-series.
There are some other SUV coming new on the market, like the Porsche, Volvo, the MDX, and god knows what else. Forget it. Toyota, GMC, Nissan, Mitsubishi, Isuzu, Jeep, have been make good trucks and SUVs for years now. Chevy (Blazer, Jimmy) & Ford (Ford Explorer) etc, have also made SUV’s for some time, but they are terrible cars and built to brake. The MDX is a big hit with a lot of newbees to the car and SUV market. These cars have, many problems are no more RUGGED than minivans. Don’t get fooled!!! | | | What things have gone wrong with the car: | BMW SUV? People who know cars, know this is a stupid concept.
Built in US, not in Germany
Poor Reliablity, not really a TRUE BMW.
Storage and towing is just plain awful.
No off road capability.
Way too expensive ....
NAV stinks compared to Lexus and Acura
Wanna'be yuppie car, true yuppies know that SUV are passe! | | | Previous car: | All of them.
If you are buying a SUV for these reasons:
Riding Up high

Storage Capacity
Don't buy an X5. There are so many other products out there. If you really want a |
