Guy with a 335 and an x5 35i here. Tune your x5 and it'll feel like the 335 but heavier. Stock it feels a bit slow specially with the shifts even though they both have the 8 speed.
@@Tenekai catless dp, aluminum chargepipe, and if you want most power upgraded FMIC, will sound amazing. then stage 2+ tune, your 0-60 will be less than 5 seconds making this faster than the 50i.
There are just not many crossovers that combine real utlility (can tow well, have a 75 cu ft cargo area, can fit 7 in a pinch) and this level of handling and acceleration. Lay off the options and when new these were $55,000 with some discounting for the SAV version. Most are optioned up to $70K, but they don't have to be.
It's better though, you don't have to pay for what you don't want. But if you buy them use, do some searching around for a while until you find one with all the packages, they don't cost that much extra then one without them cause dealers don't usually know about it. You can use a vin decoder to see what packages it has
Does anyone know if the 2013's came in blue from the factory? I can't find any used ones. I like the tester he used in this video and suspiciously enough it's a 2012 not a 2013.
+Bruno TaTa Not really, they are just build into the total sales price. Just like any certified pre-owned vehicles, extended warranty are not free but just part of the total price.
+MrTONYTONYM Well yes, but unlike Lexus, where you spend an average of $300 every 7500 miles (at least ours did) for the first 4 years, a total of $2400, you get about one "free" service a year(18,000 miles or so) , paid for at purchase time. This means the BMW is not as overpriced as it may seem. Parts are expensive, but they are on most luxury cars.
all these bmw's tend to be numb and unresponsive when their down low. there is turbo lag, combined with throttle lag (drive by wire) and, to me at least, when you press the gas you're not really sure what the car/truck is going to do. just hang on and wait for the turbo to kick you in the back of the head. sort of frustrating. i'd go with the diesel x5, anyone who's interested
What a waste of money... Dress the car with a cool frame and tech. Overprice it and neglect the most important part: comfortable, smooth driving. I expected more from BMW.
This car does 0-60 in 6.4 seconds but it has 300 hp and ft-lbs of torque. The 335i has the same numbers but it can do 0-60 in 4.8 seconds. Is it because of the weight on the car? Or is it just a thing with SUVs?
I understand that companies to buy these cars however, I have yet to see one that drives one. Honestly the corporate vehicles that I see most often are such as Impalas and camrys because they are a dime a dozen. Maybe the top 2 people in the company get these vehicles but if your not a CEO or something of that nature you aren't getting anything that fancy. And just based on ones car I don't have a first impression unless its a pile of crap.
hey FYI, its carbon fiber not aluminium!!! they use aluminum in engine and other parts of the body but not all of this car is made of aluminium cus its not sporty car otherwise price will go up more. also, it weighs around 4500 lbs!! that's not aluminium otherwise it will be around 3000 lbs. here trying to share info with u to correct ur knowledge. u r saying wrong information to people reading ur add. please type true info so people benefit from. i found 62 supporting u!! LMAO
$250 to go on shitty facebook and boring twitter? No thanks! Why don't u ever show us what facebook looks like in a car? I wanna see! Lets c if its a glitchy as the iphone/android app.
Dude, did you see the 59,000 dollar price and the shit MPG? The people buying this don't give a FUCK about $250...lol. Though I think it's stupid to have Facebook and Twitter in your car in ANOTHER way, since everyone already has them both on their phones ALREADY...I never feel like checking Facebook or Twitter when I'm driving...lol.

I'm only watching these reviews because this guy is an awesome reviewer! Straightforward, no BS.
LOL at the end "Yeah parts and service are really high on these damn things."

"Now what is hood made of..hmm" *metal clang* "must be plastic." Its called aluminum...
Best part of the video at 5:04. It's the "reality check" most BMW owners get (I was, twice). Especially when that damn "check engine" light flashes.
"Amazing light hood, must be plastic". Erm, Brian, this is a premium German car, not American. The hood is made of Aluminium
Always wondered why my E70 hood was so light!
@@denisovanhybrid9610 German engineered
But the fenders are plastic
theres a front facing camera thats standard...
its called a windscreen
This guy is such a good reviewer.
He's referring to when the rear entertainment system isn't in use, it's folded in a way that blocks front seat occupants from using the full arm rest.

BMW doesn't sell cars they sell packages! Nice review I love this guy!

if you are going for the 35i just go for the diesel, its cheaper to run and sounds better.
"it feels tippy". Ever drive, oh, any other SUV besides Porsche?
Merc's ML started the SUV era
Our manual says our SAV 3.0 gas 2013 is 4900 lbs. No 3rd row either. O-60 is rated 6.7 seconds on other sites and it feels like that to me.
Thumbs up for the Jersey plates.
Would you recommend this car or the GLK ?
I don't understand the point of the BMW Online thing when I can do the same exact thing with my smart phone or GPS?
Cars are always offering features behind the curve due to the long development times.
You have no opinion here since you use a wand to resolve any problem.

Parts and service are free for the first few years, right?

4 years maintenance and bumper to bumper warranty
I like this guys videos
I appreciate the tech focused videos
nice video..y is the rating disabled? i like
The car tech Optima EX and SX reviews are already up.
The 3 liter turbo from BMW is a great engine.
not the n54 tho only the n55
WTF? I think I've found the only quality car reviewer in USA! SWEET
Brian please do 2012 BMW 535I xDrive please!
Well what would you?
it depends.... I bought a Mercedes Gl320 because it was 10 grand less than the v8 and 30% more fuel efficient.
cnet, Y U NO MAKE CAR TECH PLAYLIST!?
Most new cars today have hoods and decklids made of aluminium, not just the europeans. They all got MPG standards to meet.
but X5 is assembled in South Carolina. There must be some degrade in terms of interior quality.
Kia sorento and optima review next?
And its all about nismo baby!! 300zx all day the real sports car
review the cayenne GTS 2013
That's what I was thinking! They look identical.

all x5's from 2011 and up have turbo
should i get x5 or Mercedes ml?
100 percent true, esp Jaq and Range Rovers
Review the q7!
Are u planning to review 2013 X3 anytime soon ?
What a waste of money... Dress the car with a cool frame and tech. Overprice it and neglect the most important part: comfortable, smooth driving. I expected more from BMW.
no, in fact its aluminum...
You get a BMW for the looks not to save on fuel :P
Indeed!
not to mention x5s are made in the us
This guy looks like he drives classic cars. He's not really impressed with the new tech. I'm thinking about picking up a used 2011- 2014 this year!
BMW underrates their vehicles, much like most German makers. This '300hp' is actually 335-340hp, as proven over and over on dynos.
Yea not true because to the wheels it looses so much do to its awd and these things weigh a ton so not really so good anyway the V8 is where it's at
@@aidenp5768 or the diesel version, just remove all emissions and tune it. You'll get around 350hp but over 500tq and well over 30mpg
no they don´t
you should get AdBlock
it actually is made of plastic, along with the front fenders
No, he's joking, and you're a touchy brand-fanboy.
lol parts and service is really high on these damn things
haha the ending, "parts and service are really high on these damn things" haha it's like that on all german cars sadly
no its not
i know why would you check facebook and twitter crap while driving? and there is a huge chance that people do that on their cell phones.
This car does 0-60 in 6.4 seconds but it has 300 hp and ft-lbs of torque. The 335i has the same numbers but it can do 0-60 in 4.8 seconds. Is it because of the weight on the car? Or is it just a thing with SUVs?
+Sachin Nair It's obviously the weight.
The X5 is heavy, close to 5,000 lbs in this version. Maybe 3600 or so in the 3 series.
Wtf lol serious question???
BMW= Performance
Mercedes=Interior
No, in fact, it is actually plastic.
-An American who knows more about your precious BMWs than you do
thank you
Do a review of a Range Rover!!!
Mpg is ok
"that is one light hood whats it made up of plastic"? Lmao Brian is the shit!
it's made to German specification.
I cant believe ur comment caused a 14 comment long argument
actually its american cause its built in south carolina
ITS A JOKE, U DONT GET IT?

In Europe I believe company cars are a way of getting employees more compensation with some tax advantages.
"Now what is this hood made of..hmm"
Are you kipkay ? ...
Good car
First. Now I feel like a man.
No shit...I guess you don't know Brian and his reviews....
all x5's have panoramic roof
Hi
i prefer jeep grand cherokee
Facecrack and twitter in the car? Hmmm why
the car he is reviewing is the v8 version of the X5.
It's the v6 model. I don't think there is a v8
The X5 has always offered a V8 engine, several of them in fact.
He's reviewing the twin-powered turbo I6 X5. The V8 engine comes on the 48i XDrive.
Dennis Xu 50i
@Mac Stam that's because the 4.4 and 4.8 were naturally aspirated whereas the the 50 is the 4.4 twin turbo'd
Mhmmm..Brian uses an Android device...!?!
I'll rather buy a Acura RDX than that! same 300hp,AWD,etc!
Not sure how this design will age...
Cosm0s still holds up good tbh
i just bought a 2013 and it still looks good, not as 'futuristic' as the next gen but it doesn't look out of place in a parking lot
Why does it look soo cheap ?
No the 76 year old chevy suburban started it lol XD
and not one of those is british.
OK, I want in. What's the joke?
Is BMW trying to create more accidents why are they adding Facebook and twitter in their cars.

Man for a second there I almost thought he liked this car.
They shouldn't even make getting an SUV in anything other than black or white an option.
Cuz when I buy I car, technology is the deciding factor, come on Cooley, stop spending so much time on "tech"......

just like another bmw on the road, nothing special..
god thats cheap!! in brazil its about $300.000!
Cars are cheap in the US!
he is the best guy from usa can compet with clarkson... he shoud be the host of top gear use.... now bunch of gay hosting top gear USA.

Smh its people like that that makes us americans look like idiots
Somebody need to go to jail...No way that car is worth over $40K. German cars overpriced.
Yeah, a premium soccer-mom SUV.
