2001 BMW X5 consumer reviews

This car is very seductive and makes you feel good . I have one and i really miss it but i cant drive it because it has something wrong with it that caused a trans fail prog code to come up and now im stuck in one gear to prevent driving it and making damages severe. Every thing about fixing and Maintenace of this car is double cost . i have had one problem after another and been fighting with losing results for awhile . its a nassitissic car and you will get alot of joy but more pain i promise.

They look great, are comfortable, get decent gas mileage for their size/weight, and handle as a BMW should. The driving position is one of my all time favorites as you sit upright with big windows all around giving you great visibility. The economics of the cabin are wonderful. Overall it’s a great driving experience. But... They are not well built or designed. Maintenance labor cost are going to be nearly double of that of other BMWs because the front subframe pretty Much as to come off every time you touch the engine or transmission. And both those are going to need a lot of touching. My 120k X5 3.0 required $10k of work in just two years, and was a car with detailed service records since new. That $10k isn’t even the full number of all the repairs that were needed because it ran me dry and about another $4k in work was still needed at the time I sold it. And I sold it for $3500. If you have deep pockets and this is your dream car, do it! They are lovely to drive. If you’re thinking a cheap used BMW SUV might give you luxury while saving you money, just run as far away as you can as these will eat you alive!

These amazing SUV's are powerful, economical, hardy, well made, long lasting, beautiful, easy to get in & out even if you are elderly, & so incredible to drive. Truly, my favorite car I have ever owned.

Well at first back when in 2006 I really was skeptical on buying a car online. But every since I've been sold on cars.com I trust their service and also am ready to buy my 2020 soon off cars.com

It's an amazing car that will last forever if you keep it maintained! I've been very satisfied that is why I'm buying another. You'll live it. It's in very good shape. No wrecks or dings.

The car has a lot of power and is quick...it is fun to drive, has good space, great radio. It's very sporty and drives/rides great!

Excellent; would absolutely buy another one. The only ding is the exterior styling, which is good, but a little in the 'Dad Car' category - - maybe some flame decals next time, Germans?

It was a good value for the price my fiance paid. It has a nice euro body sport kit on it. The rims are custom BMW. It is an expensive car to maintain but it's very fun. I want to sell it because I'm looking to buy a motorcycle or another Subaru. I would like to see it go to a BMW enthusiast. It gave us a nice ride

This is the kind of car you hit someone with and because the car is made from solid steel the other person's car is going to be obliterated. It is a 2001 so it does lack some of the creature comforts of the newer vehicles it makes up for it in safety.

I LOVE this SUV. It's my 2ND BMW. After owning a BMW 318ic convertible, I was very resistant on getting an SUV. But after driving it, I'm hooked! I love the performance. It handles great, the exterior is beautiful, and a very reliable car. After 160,000 miles, it still drives smooth. Its got excellent handling in corners and feels very nice when seated in it. A seemingly very safe passenger cabin with lots of leg room for 5 people. Without a doubt, this is the best car I have ever owned.
