    It takes a great bit of technology to make this X5M handle the way it does. The only downside as you said, it never lets you forget that it is a sport suv. As a previous owner, I don’t know of many other sport SUVs that would give you the same performance experience. It is a joy to drive.

      Way less depreciation then EVs. WAY LESS. U honestly have atleast 4 years until a new gen refresh when it starts depreciating.
      People that talk like u guys buy a 3 series and then wonder why it depreciates. The high end M Comp models like this car... the x6m , m3C,m4C,etc.. hold value very well if u look at the market. Depending on the spec it could even go up in pricing. M3 cs and m4 csl dont depreciate at all. U just gotta buy the shit other people will want to pay a premium for

    This looks pretty awesome, as most X5M's tend to, interestingly. I also don't really love SUV's but if I were to get one, I would probably be looking at this. It's insane how fast and unreasonably sporty these things have become lol.
    I also ADORE those door panels and really the hex stitching throughout. It's my favorite part of the Audi Sport seats but it just loooks that much more awesome on the doors as well. BMW continues to kill it with their interiors.
    I said this when the XM came out, and I'll say it again - when the X5M exists, there is no reason to buy an XM.

    I'm a fan of all gen x5m's. They look great and handle pretty well. This new gen is no exception for me. The interior is amazing and the colors, especially the Marina Bay blue, are out of this world. They're just way too expensive in my opinion considering how resale values plummet on all gen x5's. I mean, obviously people are still buying these, but at 140k, I'd rather much step into the high end sports car segment or used exotic category. That's just me. I feel like these are trying to be more of a status symbol nowadays than performance vehicle. I bet you anything more mom's are driving these as daily's, driving the kids around to soccer practice, shopping, running errands, than there are people buying these to actually drive them hard. I feel the same goes for the Mercedes GLE 63. Nonetheless, still an awesome suv. Anything with the M badge, in which they're a true M vehicle, is a badass vehicle.

    I'm so curious what the market is for these types of performance SUVs. If you're a car person, you would much rather spend the $140k on an actual performance car and not a ... performance SUV. My assumption is that these are marketed towards a very niche 1% market where folks who burp money buy these as grocery getters for their wives/partners.

      What's wild is the normal X5, if you get the M sport and option the bigger wheels like most of them have, also come with those 315 rear tires. And that's a common soccer mom vehicle, I always wonder if those people know what they're getting into when they get those lol. Probably why I see tons of X5's on summer tires in winter cuz they can't afford/find winter tires in 315 width.

    for a carmaker that takes pride in building the "ultimate driving machines", it's ironic that they stopped manufacturing manual gearboxes. cars are getting more and more automated, because people hate driving, and, ideally, would like cars to drive themselves while watching tv, and bmw are more than happy to satisfy that kind of customer. on one hand, it's understandable, on the other hand -🖕them. there's a parallel between what's happening now in the automotive industry and what happened in watchmaking during the quartz crisis in the 70s. the only thing one can hope for is the emergence of a niche market, where manual combustion cars will be sold to enthusiasts at a premium. otherwise it'll be a sad world to live in, and driving a mindless affair. /rant

    • @ZoomZoom356
      @ZoomZoom356 5 месяцев назад +3

      It's because they designed the V8s cross bank manifolds differently in the M cars which helps spool the turbos better, but it does cause the engine to sound a lot different from a typical V8, the M60i doesn't have that tune so it sounds more like a traditional V8, and it sounds better honestly.

    At $140K, the 2024 RSQ8 is the pick over this. Looks better, sounds better, and the interior is the usual Audi class act. BMW designers have lost it in the past few years. Polarising exterior looks while their interior is just a slab of uninspiring digital screen to pass off for a dashboard. It's like they couldn't be bothered with designing a traditional cockpit/dashboard. Just stick a massive rectangular screen and call it a day. Pathetic.
