  • Love the X5, hate the running boards

    After years of traveling to Europe on business and having Mercs and BMWs as rental cars I finally bought one for my daily drive. I absolutely love my X5. I test drove the 4.8 and 3.0 and... Read full review

  • BMW X5, KBB Consumer Review

  • My 2nd X5; but also my last X5

    "I had a 2004 X5 (3.0) on a 4-year lease ended April 2008. In April 2008, I leased a brand new 2008 X5 (3.0) for 3 years. I loved my 2004 X5 so much that I leased a 2008 X5 (3.0) without... Read full review

Other Choices:

    The world of full-size luxury SUVs is jammed with high-dollar names like the Brit-cool Land Rover Range Rover, which is also considerably more expensive than the BMW X5. The Lexus GX 470 is a slightly smaller choice in this group, while Infiniti's QX56 is a big SUV in the American mold, down to its unimpressive trim in the back two seating rows. Porsche's Cayenne seats only five and has drab styling, but great handling for an SUV. The Cadillac Escalade out-blings all these vehicles and has a smooth powertrain to go with its high price tag and low fuel economy, though a Hybrid edition is coming. The Mercedes-Benz GL-Class matches the X5 in seating and off-road capacity, and to our eyes, it's more handsome than the BMW.
