Fantastic ride
The drive of a BMW X5 is amazing. Lots of room for passengers, 7 seats, or storage as the last 2 rows of seats completely fold down.
Mileage for the diesel can't be beat! 800 kms per tank!

It was a terrific ride
As would be expected from an over $90,000 BMW X5Drive32i SUV, for four years the Vehicle had delivered terrific performance and comfort from the $18,000 spent on our annual maintenance over that time period, excluding warranty. Certainly, as an owner you can feel the prestige of driving this BMW down the street, with superior exterior styling and the comfortable interior. The fuel economy was OK, but certainly a bit pricey due to the need for premium gas fill-ups. Then unexpectedly as my daughter drove down the 407 Highway she heard an engine knock and acceleration gave out, thank god she was able to pull over safely. We had the Vehicle transported to our dealer for assessment, where we heard the diagnosis, that the engine needed to be replaced after only four years and 140,000 KM of usage. In hind site, the price/performance of the vehicle, safety of my family and now the concern with resale value given our experience should have been a bigger part of our consideration. Certainly, one does not expect any vehicle never mind a premium brand to have such a short viable life span before requiring major repairs.

Gorgeous but unreliable and expensive without warranty
I love the look and feel of my X5 Diesel, however, it breaks down, if it isnt one little thing its another. It is under warranty until 2018 (bought extended) but I have to say, I will be getting rid of it before that because if a person had to pay for any repairs, they would go broke. Buyer beware of any BMW without a warranty.

Family and Performance in 1 Pkg
The 335hp with 335torque means that this car can haul its weight with no problem.
It's not easy on gas, especially in the city so try to have as few stop-and-go and engine off/on moments as possible.
Interior heats up quickly in winter.
General maintenance can be affordable if you shop deals and avoid the dealership (ie: bought engine oil from WalMart on sale, and had a shop do the change, with the filter bought from the dealer). Know you're stuff or research, and money can be saved.
Performance: It flies! Add the extra wide tires at the back during summer (315 in back and 275 in front), and stability, looks, and ride quality grow beyond anything else!
Family: Backseat is very comfortable. Third row seating is for little people. Back seat reclines and adjusts similar to the ones in the front. Climate control w/seat warmers available in the back also
Winter ride still has to be done...but recommend winter tires.

Piece of Garbage
When I first bought this car, I loved it! It's responsive, it's powerful, it handles like a car on corners but this car soon let me down over and over and over again. I will NEVER buy another BMW because of the experience I've had with this vehicle. I have spent approximately $15,000 in additional expenses over the past 3 years because of issues that were no longer covered by the warranty. I have had an electrical gremlin since I bought the car and that causes numerous issues on a regular basis but the entire fuel system has been replaced, the coolant system currently needs replacing and I can't even remember how many other parts this car has had replaced. Even still, I'm in the shop every other week for additional issues. As soon as one thing is fixed, another goes wrong! Just yesterday, while being towed back to the dealer yet again, the driver said he could live off of just towing BMW's and Mercedes!
AVOID THIS CAR!!! Save yourself unbelievable amounts of frustration and money and run in the other direction!
