This is the ONLY place to buy a car!! These guys are honest and that is impossible to find these days. I put down a $800 deposit and when the credit union cut the check for the full amount and didnt discount the money I put down, nobody noticed at first. I was already driving my new car, signed sealed and delivered when I got a call from Amati auto that there was a mistake and they returned $800 to my credit card!! I would never have known if they decided to keep it; but they didn't! Tell me what other dealer would do that? NONE!!! Thank you so much for a great buying experience! For being honest people. And thank you Pat for making it easy and fun! I will be buying cars from there for the rest of my life!!

Very clean car

It is an amazing car like a BMW should be but for the right price. If this car is 10k or even 11k at most then i would consider buying but anymore and i dont know if i would. It has to have good miles along with the price.
I have owned this car for 2 years now and I have driven it for 25,000 miles. I am overall pleased with the car. In fact, I test drove it by chance, more out of curiosity than anything else, and I was immediately won over and decided to buy it after trying a shortlist of about other 10-12 SUVs. Is it perfect? No, but it is not half bad either.
FUEL ECONOMY. I have the 6-cylinder, 4 wheel drive model. I drive about 30% city and 70% hwy. From LA to SF I have achieved 25.6 mpg on all hwy by exploiting the coasting ability of this heavy vehicle. Overall, at 25,000 miles, my average is at 22.2 mpg. Pure city driving is painful and I do not think one can achieve more than 16 mpg. Definitely not more than 17mpg. The tank is large and the range is excellent at over 500 miles of pure freeway/highway. I do not drive slow. In fact, I have taken it to over 100mph and I like to drive it in sport mode on the local canyon roads as well. However, I do not accelerate and brake all the time.
COST OF MAINTENANCE SO FAR. So far $0 as it is still under warranty. Brakes... at 25k miles, according to the computer, I have still 18k miles left on the front brakes and 28k miles left on the rear brakes. So, you do the numbers. Tires, I am afraid that the Pirelli run flat tires it came with will probably not last for more than 40-45k miles. That I am disappointed. I was hoping for at least 60k miles, frankly. In 2 years I have never burned rubber as, frankly, I could not care less. 2 oil changes (free). According to BMW my driving is much better than average and the computer asks me to change the oil every 11.5k miles instead of the more typical 10k miles.
COMFORT and RIDE. I do not like the standard seats one bit. Ugly and uncomfortable. I immediately went for the luxury seats which allow for seat extension and multiple contour controls. BMW should be ashamed to sell a car in that price range with those cheap standard seats. That cost me an additional $2k, but I have not regretted it, not even for 1 second. The ride is comfortable, but on bumps the car is not very pleasant, not at all. My old Honda CR-V is way more comfortable going over bumps and I can even take the bumps at higher speeds than with my X5. Noise insulation is excellent though. Not like a $100k+ car, but excellent. The Jaguar F-Pace, for a comparison was 2x noisier than the X5 when I test drove it. Beautiful car, but too noisy, frankly. Passenger seats excellent and so are the back seats. Sometimes when I need to work on my computer in between meetings I seat there and it is very comfortable (I am 6'2"- 240). Cargo space is not huge, but more than adequate for me. Third row of seats is of no use to me and so I cannot comment on that.
ISSUES. Nothing mechanical or electrical, thankfully. During the first year, on several occasions, we experienced an extremely unpleasant smell coming through the A/C or ventilation system. In a few occasion it was so bad that we had to open the window. I am not dreaming it as my wife and, in one occasion even a passenger in the back seat, reported it. I felt ashamed to have a passenger experiencing that. It was bordering the nasty. Of course, when I reported to BMW, they had no idea, but other people I know with the same or different BMW models reported a similar issue. Is it condensation during the hot days of Summer? We do not know although we experience it mostly in the hot days. Another issue is with the stop and go. No complaining about the feature, but when starting uphill, even slightly, often the car produces a short cranking noise. Never happens on flats or downhill, though.
BIGGEST SURPRISE. It is not a cheap car to use, but I was surprised by the cost of the license plate sticker which, in California, comes to almost $600/year. Insurance was also a surprise, although I was kind of prepared for it. I carry a good amount of insurance but, even with a clean driving record, I am shelling out around $2,400/year. When I compare it to my Honda CR-V, the only huge difference is the collision entry. AAA told me that X5 are very expensive to fix and therefore the high price.
FUN FACTOR. I will not deny that it is a fun car to drive. Besides, I had to buy it after test driving it for 1 week (car rental). However, the 0-60 in 6 seconds is nothing to brag about. With the bigger engine it would be a different thing, but that model has many more issues and fuel economy is horrendous. In sport mode it is quite a bit of fun!

Love my X5

Previously had 2016 BMW X3 which was a great car. The re-designed 2018 X3 didn’t have as tight of steering and felt slightly lower in seating position. I test drove the 2018 X5 and loved the higher ride, the tight steering and beautiful interior. My old X3 felt a bit sportier and quicker but the X5 is more powerful. Love it!

Most luxurious ride for this type of vehicle
by RM from Bel Air

The vehicle is very comfortable and quite powerful. It does not however have all of the features that I thought it might. It is probably due to the fact that it is a base model
Owned 2006 535xi so time for a new car. Test drove 6 other comparable SUV's thinking I would change brands but nothing drives like a BMW. As a Realtor vehicle is comfortable for my clients, technology assist in safe driving and BMW style. My highest recommendation.
I’ve been to different dealerships for maintenance but the customer service here was great the rep wasn’t pushing to make additional sales like everyone else does, and i was out of there in no time.

A definite sports car wrapped in a luxurious SUV

I dream to travel in. Lots of power when needed. Full leather interior super spacious and comfortable. Shifter console command center well thought out and efficient.
Bought as a "new" dealer loaner with 0% BMW financing, May 2018, trading 2015 X3 with 60K. 26 mpg commuting 50 miles each workday, 30-32 mpg on the road for this large SAV. Rock solid, tight and SO quiet. M Sport package makes for a classy interior and exterior. Ride is a bit stiff, but if you enjoy driving, BMW is the brand. Hope to drive until similar-size BMW electric with range and self-navigation comes along.
Nice looking with great performance and reliable. Low mileage and gas consumption is great. Runs without any problem and very smoothly. My wife loves it.
Concord Lovering staff in all departments are the real deal. I have never had a better experience and the care and quality is there long after the purchase, which is why I just bought my 2nd Volvo from them and why 4 out of 26 colleagues drive our Lovering Volvos to work everyday.

Awesome X5 - We bought a new one!

Drives like a dream and you feel very safe inside-solid vehicle. Great SUV for trips or driving around town and it's easy to park and decent on gas. Lots of room, love the third row seat which folds down to make even more space. The pano roof is really nice on a warm summer evening. Has an auto sun shade for when it gets too warm which is another nice feature on the giant sun roof. Heated seats are really excellent in the X5! Nice complement to the heated steering wheel too. Awesome BMW sound system. Just had it detailed. We leased a new one which is why we are selling this one. Purchased new in Rockville, MD.
Had a short window to repair vehicle. Reviewed ahead of time over the phone and the shop was able to get the work done, truck detailed, and cashed out ahead of schedule. Also utilized their shuttle service which was very accommodating and prompt.

This 4000 lb behemoth handles like a sports car.
I’ve always been a car guy. 3 series coupe or Audi A5. So when I needed room for the family, suvs seemed boring. Then I drove the x5. You really don’t have to compromise. Plenty of room, handling, and a range of engines from capable to frightening (x5m.)
Great car but a lil overpriced but overall love it

Loved this car, had all the features and horsepower that I expected. Very roomy and would recommend this car. A little high on price, but a good investment.

If you like driving cars, the X5 is for you. I have driven Infiniti's, Lexus, Lincoln, etc. All of them have their xxxxxxand con's however if you enjoy a good driving experience in an SUV, the X5 is a great choice.
