Used 2001 BMW X5 for Sale near Anchorage, AK
In it second year of production, the 2001 BMW X5 was still getting quizzical looks from BMW purists and professional care reviewers. "Must every carmaker build a sport-ute?" groaned the editor of one automotive magazine. "It's as ridiculous as if every manufacturer were to field a full-size pickup, or an econobox, or an armor-plated luxury sedan. I think the X5 represents the wrong direction for BMW."
But then again, was the 2001 X5 even a class SUV? It had a unitized chassis, not a ladder frame. It had a sophisticated independent suspension, not a live rear axle with leaf springs. It also lacked a low range in its transfer case, "which some SUVs wear as a badge of honor."
The SUV - or is it a car - was built on the successful 5-series sedan chassis, and, as a result, handled beautifully according to owners and reviewers. But the X5 does lack cargo space leaving some to wonder if they'd have been better off just purchasing a 5-series.
4.6 Overall rating
(34 reviews)Pros: very fast heated seats great sound system great gas mileage sapcious Cons: expensive to fix small close together cupholders too many buttons and lights orange dash display cd does not like some burnt cds Overall a really wonderful car to own
Great attempt by BMW to create their first SUV, or SAV in their language. Flawless performance, least body-roll in its class, great throttle response, superb brakes. Some gremlins do appear in this car, but considering it's built in the US, then it's not that surprising, really.. Be sure that this car lives in the correct climate, or more gremlins could chew your wallet away.
Best in its class, awesome drive, smooth and car like handling. It is really the ultimate handling machine!
Overall a great car to drive. Very responsive feel regarding handling, braking and maneuvering. Random issues with electronics operating sporadically. The build of the car is solid, high quality parts and feel to the components throughout the vehicle. Could be a little easier on the pocket book with regards to maintenance and repair - but well worth the expense as the driving experience is 2nd to none.
Good handling, quick, strong and sexy. My Girl loves it. She drives it all the time. She doesn't let me drive anymore. But in driver or in passenger seat, I must say, this car is a real eye catcher. I recommend this SUV to anyone and everyone that likes BMW and wants to own a 4X4!
