The BMW sports package is very good overall however I do not think that it matches the practicality of the Mercedes range of cars

The M-Sport pack cheapens the look of the X5. Its a fine looker as is. It really begs the question though; the previous gen X5 with its 4.8is (or even 4.6is) model looked really tough and aggressive and what have you with the “sports” bodykit/package on it, why have they failed with this generation’s sports pack? They must’ve hired a 12y/o that spends too much time in Halfords (or Autobarn/Super Cheap =p) to do the new bodykits.

(For further example, look at the additional items that customers can option for the 5 series; a stupid looking little rear spoiler that ruins the look of the car utterly and completely. A knob that doesnt live too far from me drives one with it, every time I drive past I want to rip it off because its such an abomination)

And I still cant stand the naming sequence of BMW’s cars equipped with “xDrive”.

If they so must put an X in the name, whats wrong with just x48i or x30d or whatever.. -_-

The lack of airmatic suspension and 22inch spinners is a deal breaker for me.

and stop calling it an M X5 when it’s clearly an X5 M Sport.

I am a big fan of the X5 4.8i with 20inch wheels.
Not a fan of this M sport packs paint work. I like how the lower part of the body is unpainted in the normal X5.
And I get that most people don’t see the point of these suv’s, but when you have a big dog, these cars can be a bit desirable.

No, they can’t call it an “M X5″ because BMW has rules on how they name cars. M cars get the M in front, cars that have a sports package get an M after the model designation. The only exception is the Z4 M which is a M car, but being called an M4 would be misleading.

I really don’t like X5s.

Geez, looks riced out to me… I just don’t get the colour coded everything look. Some sections of black help break up the look in lighter colours.

If I was ordering a new X5, the only things I would want from the whole M Sports package would be the steering wheel and the anthracite roof lining.

What a anti-bargain at $11k on the base model. I reckon you would lose every cent of that in extra depreciation too…
