Performance - acceleration is excellent especially at pick up, good & effective brakes easy to handle. Build Quality - Perfect. Appearance - attractive interior, needs a little pimping on the exterior. Cost of Ownership - not cheap to maintain, gas is a little expensive. Fun Factor - it feels good to drive.

July 8, 2011BMW X5 Xdrive 35d is the best model you can get. The car is mainly used for long journeys as it is cheap for fuel and has got the best MPG out of all of my cars. Never had any problems with the car, and it is quite fast. It looks nice on the exterior and interior
May 15, 2011The Ultimate SUV, agile, tight, precise, refined, and just sporty. nice room but could be a few inches bigger. Sunroof is large and makes the interior feel open. Top quality interior and all the gadgets you want.. You have to drive it to appreciate how few other suv's can handle as well, except maybe the cayenne.
August 30, 2009In my lifetime, I've owned many different cars by many different manufacturers: Ford, Chevy, M-Benz, Honda, Jaguar, Cadillac. Two years ago my wife purchased her first BMW 328i. After I drove it one time, I fell in love with BMW brand all together. I then purchased my first BMW X5. Since then, I've driven only BMW's, learned the cars inside and out. This is the best German engineered vehicle that I have known. Better then M-Benz S600 that I used to own in 1997. I am completely sold on BMW's and will not switch to another brand for nothing. Top notch car manufacturer today.
June 2, 2013Like: Performance Ride Kids have not destroyed yet Seems reliable Fuel consumption is not Dislike Nothing - well actually, lack of mud flaps etc. As a 4x4 it seems to get covered in road dirt more than any other car I have owned. I got mine in black and it constantly needs washing. Recommend silver or something if got another.
November 8, 2010peformance- brakes are good, like all bmw's acceleration is kinda bad on the x30i, but the handling is solid. the overall design of the car is pretty good, but there should be more options as to what you can put on the bumpers.
July 8, 2009Very good car to drive in all conditions handles like a first class champ. The day to day drive is awesome and easy to stay with or lead the pack. Make sure to watch the posted speed as you get up on step very quickly.
June 19, 2013this BMW is a very luxurious piece of machinery. the acceleration is really quick, the engine is very nice, when you are right behind the vehicle and it drives off it has a pretty loud exhaust on it. the exterior of the BMW is fast looking it has a good looking exhaust tip on it. the interior of the car is all black leather and has a great nav system on it and has a pretty big stereo system in the car. this car is fun to be in and i love the mid sized SUV type cars.
