"We bought our 2004 BMW X5 just as a place holder until we got our Lexus. We took it on a 2,000 mile trip right after we bought it and it did very good! The AWD performed well in the mountains of Colorodo. We love having the panoramic roof to let in more air and sunlight. The xenon headlights and LED halos are a trademark of BMW's and we get a lot of looks when driving at night with them on. It now has 135,000 miles on it and still runs well. The only things we wish it had are a nav system and power lift gate like our Lexus has. We put 19" rims on it and they make it look a lot more sporty than the rims it came with. Overall we are happy with it and it is everything that we hoped it would be- minus some."

"This is my first X5 and I like so far. Much better than my ML 320. Power is excellent , MPG is fair at about 20 overall. Interior is nice and roomy with comfortable seats. I will probably keep this one for awhile if it continues to be dependable."

"I have owned Audis, Acuras, Saabs and this is my first BMW. I can honestly say there is a reason why this car is more premium in price. While it is expensive it maintains its value being that there is not one cheap part in the entire vehicle. The car operates flawlessly and is the type of car you buy and hold for a long time. I have traditionally changed cars about 2 years. After 18 months the car still feels new and interesting. Reliability excellent and its quality is outstanding. Nothing more to say."

"Don't buy this car without an extended warranty it is the most unreliable car I've ever had. The dealer wants to charge me 4000 dollars for a new panoramic sunroof and i've been in the dealership at least once a month. All this only happened after the Warrant expired."
