The X5 is the only BMW they haven't destroyed with the new bizzare styling changes. It looks, drives and performs great. Easily one of the best in class.

Good vid this week. Thanks, guys! 🙂
-
Thanks for the details on the new BMW X5. Looking forward to hearing about the X3. Love the changes they made, but ouch on the pricing.
-
Great review as usual, you guys do it best. I agree with and would LOVE to follow Zack's advice to drive the various suspension/wheel options before I order what I want, but my experience has been I am lucky to drive ANY X5, let alone the configuration I think I want to own. That's why in-depth, detailed reviews that give opinions and provide suggestions on the options (like you do!) are so valuable.
-
I stand corrected. You had several comparisons to the Q7. Thanks. 😊
-
Luv u both Great content Thank You
-
Great review. Sounds like it will be successful, but it sounds like I would enjoy CPO X5 more. As much as I don’t appreciate the “softening” of the mainline Beemers, going soft probably helps with market share.
-
Thanks for providing us with details so it makes it easy to know which car to get.
-
It is refreshing to see a new BMW which actually has nice styling.
-
At about 9:47, Zach mentions “Clamshell” while describing the X5 boot. It should actually be “ Split tailgate” as Clamshell is a patented Audi design
-
Love all your reviews! Thank you - One question - do you happen to know what the name of the wood trim was in this model? I don't think this exact trim is available in the US. (if it was I would love to get it as I have a X5 50e on order.

You can change / adjust air suspension to change the harder suspension for sports option.
-
Always good and honest review. Specially taking into account price of all cars. This couple always looks out for their audiences wallets.
-
I really liked the engine, power and performance that makes the BMW X5 among the best SUVs... I liked seeing you driving in white clogs. I wish success and many sales.
-
You two have that formula down pact. Nice video.
