Am I the only one that doesn't like the newer X5?

I love my X5. I really do. It's getting into almost two years of age, and the dealership can't convince me near enough to get a newer one. On a long trip, given the choice between the X5 and the Turbo S, I take my X5.

What do you all think?

The real deal or.....


Surely someone agrees that the new one is just......fug?

At first I wasn't diggin the look of the new X, but it's grown on me. I know what you're going thru, every time I bring the 05 X5 in for service, they want to talk about an upgrade to the new model. It would be nice moving from the 4.4 to the 4.8

The best X5 is the 4.6is in Imola Red over red interior, I really like that SUV and I am extremely sad that they are not making the X5 look more muscular than round like the one offered currently.

It sounds very brutal in stock, quiet loud for a stock suv.

As always, I agree with you 100%.

I like the new X5. Much more aggressive.
