Used 2011 BMW X5 xDrive35d for sale near me

This is the most underrated gems in the used diesel SUV market—but only if you’re the right kind of owner. Powered by the soon becoming legendary M57 inline-six diesel engine, this version of the E70 X5 combines German engineering with long-haul durability if treated right….and by treated right, I mean ideally maintained by someone who can turn a wrench and not the type of owner who wants to drop it off at the dealership for every noise or light. This vehicle is ideal for the hands-on car enthusiast who appreciates the mechanical integrity of a proper diesel engine and doesn’t mind putting in garage time to keep it in good shape. If you're someone who already loves BMWs and understands their quirks, this vehicle will feel like a rewarding project and a fantastic daily driver in one package. The M57 diesel engine is incredibly robust and becomes one of the best engines only with one huge caveat…the emissions equipment needs to be removed. In fact, I would not recommend owning this vehicle if you don’t plan or cannot do this in your state legally. Once deleted, this engine opens up and delivers a strong blend of torque, horse power and efficiency, making it an excellent tow vehicle. It's perfect for hauling a car trailer, camper, or family gear around without struggle. Stock, it’s already torquey, but with the deletes and a mild tune, this becomes a real beast without sacrificing reliability...and if given a race tune, this thing will hurt other drivers' feelings pulling from stop lights or on the freeway. The chassis overall is “decent” (Being said by a vintage BMW enthusiast, this is very much a compliment to today’s standards), but there are known maintenance pain points that a mechanically inclined owner should be aware of. If you plan to purchase from a used dealership or private seller, you’ll most likely need to do a suspension refresh including replacement of struts, bushings, arms etc.…possibly an engine refresh including valve cover seals, intake manifold cleaning and replacement of other various leaky seals…work on the cooling system including but not limited to replacing lines, hoses, main/expansion coolant tank as these are plastic and will crack and fail due to heat over time. There will be some normal interior wear including the finishes of center console buttons peeling off but are easily replaceable. Something important to note when purchasing is the interior sunroof shade condition, including whether it is completely operable and if there are any signs of sagging/peeling fabric. Any issue with the sunroof should reflect in the price as this item is very intricate, expensive, and difficult to work on. These aren’t dealbreakers though...just things to note when looking to purchase and if they’ve been covered in recent maintenance...if they haven't, plan for work that will inevitably need to be done. Again, don’t expect it to be hands-off, you’ve got to earn this one…But if you're up for the task, you’ll be rewarded with one of BMW’s most versatile platforms.

As a proud BMW owner since mid-eighties, to include owning a 2001 E-53 X5 while stationed overseas; the 2011 X5 50i is one of the best-looking and best performing BMW SUV we've owned (especially with sport activity package, adaptive drive, and dynamic stability control). In 2011, our newly purchased X5 E70 with MSRP of over $80K, was loaded with all BMW options offered, expect active cruise control. When we recently purchased a BMW X7, the BMW dealer trade offer was low, so we decided to keep our X5 with only 48.8K miles, my wife loves it. The only major repairs we have done so far are to replace the oil pan gasket (due to a small leak), and a couple of new batteries. The X5 still runs like new, and we plan to keep it as long as possible.

I had a great experience purchasing my car from DFW Auto. The staff was friendly, honest, and very easy to work with, which made the entire process smooth and stress-free. They took the time to answer all my questions, explained everything clearly, and never made me feel pressured. The car was exactly as described and in great condition. Overall, DFW Auto provided excellent customer service, and I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable dealership.

This Dealer is a fraud. I went to see the car. It cant even start. One of the salespeople told me to run from the car. It smokes, and shakes, and the check engine light is on along with ever other light on the dash. Run Run

I recently purchased a preowned car and couldn’t be happier with the experience! Drew and his team were incredibly transparent, answering all my questions and providing detailed information about the car’s history. They made sure everything was in top shape before handing over the keys, which gave me a lot of confidence in my purchase. It’s rare to find such honesty and dedication to customer satisfaction. I’d highly recommend this dealership to anyone looking for a trustworthy place to buy a used vehicle!

I bought mine in 2015 - it was the premium sport activity version - spent two weeks deep detailing the outside - looked like someone waxed it with metal wristwatch still on - but it was a labor of love - and that has been it - seven years later I have put 12000 miles on it and only expense was new battery from when I left lights on and killed the original battery - got rid of the run flats the first week I had it - the thing depreciated so fast and all these people giving me grief about don't buy the 2011 x5 - but the n55 engine is a good engine if you research a bit and get stuff done early that is cheaper --- well I only have 34000 miles on it - ( I have other cars) - and when I think about trading it and here what I would get I can't bring myself to do it - not when nothing bad has happened - and it's like when a curve says 45 and you go through 75 how can you - well the infinity I had was a tad bit faster but worthless in the snow - but the x5 does so well - and ya I guess there are broke versions and that sucks for those that get stuck - but that happens with all cars - some get lucky or god loves them more - lol - and others get crappy cars --- hey its like when we are born - some get great folks as parents and others have to survive the best they can in the dysfunctional grief of horrible parents - but I don't know this x5 I got is like that dog that keep following you - I want to trade it - but it keeps just going and going and it drives so nice - and everybody is bad mouthing it but I have no complaints except one - my back - the L5 vertebra got kind of destroyed and it is so hard those seats that even with a support pillow - it is hard to go long distance - not saying the cadillac escalade or the gmc yukon makes all the misery go away but I can travel better with the big cushions -- I guess I could custom make a special pillow and then I wouldn't have that to whine about - lol - anyway -- I guess life being what it is the engine could blow up tomorrow and it would be worthless - but the funny thing is - with all the depreciation they pretty much made it worthless anyway - so I won't be trading it for a kia - or fiat --- the years I spent driving 1000 dollar cars might have been fun and an adventure but now at this age -- I don't want to die on the side of the road somewhere because my electric car blew up with me in it. what I say is read about this car this year and do what you can - and forget those people at the dealership for BMW - they might be great humans, but they are there to Ghost your Credit cards and spend your money in so many selfish ways - in many ways they resemble the health care system - just take care of your car and give it some love.

Very honest with timely replies. Pointed out vehicle deficiencies to me instead of letting me drive out from east coast to find out. I appreciate that increasingly rare quality. Thank you.

This car is a joy to own. It's 10 years old and still looks great. The 20" wheels make the car handle beyond expectations. Getting 24.3 mpg city and hwy combined. I've never had a breakdown and no serious engine or manufacturing defects. Going to hold onto the car until the wheels fall off.
