BMW may have been late to the SUV party 20 years ago, but ever since the first #X5 came out, it really started a crazy SUV trend over at #BMW. To see just how much the #BMWX5 has changed over the years, we got a hold of a 2001 X5 to see how its held up over the years and what exactly the key changes are compared to the all-new 2019 X5. Special thanks to Jake from Out Motorsports for allowing us to borrow his 2001 X5 3.0i.

I like these past to present comparison videos. You should do more of them!
Agreed
corvette c5 vs c6 vs c7 vs the new one please
I think that his new bmw x5 in 20 years will be in a junkyard vs the old one still going strong
Bob Marley to be fair most first gen x5s are in junkyards I haven’t seen one in a couple months
@@porsche928s5 yea but some are still runing but his new Bmw x5 in 20 years almost all will be in junkyards
That virginia license plate with the german words "ACH NEIN" which stands for "OH NO" is hilarious 😂 Great video!
NEIN!! NEIN!! 😂
😂😂😂
If more characters are allowed the owner may put SCHEISSE on the plate.🤣
@@ThatSilentGuy that's exactly what I was going to say, you beat me to it!
@@ThatSilentGuy am dead 😂🤣🤣💀
Those 1st gen X5s look great even today. They were just classy.
yea BMWs have timeless looking designs
Yes! Look at it, so perfectly proportioned. BMW really has no clue how to re-style its cars except to make its grille bigger every time.
@@motormusique that's the new wave now lol alot of car manufacturers are making their grilles bigger & bigger. I blame Toyota/Lexus (I think they were the ones that started this new trend)
My favorite X5. Just looks so clean.
@@b.f.378 Lexus was first then Audi follow
It's kinda tricky to judge older BMWs because a lot of the refinement and driving feel depends on the bushings and mounts. People usually don't maintain those and the driving difference between a car with old tired bushings/shocks and new bits is pretty damn noticeable.
This also applies to classic cars, to an extent
in 20 years this 2019 will be probably in junkyard not driving with weekened shocks :D its a little bit not fair comparsion , like he compair a 3 series e90 to the old first series e30 :D
Please do more reviews like this. It's nice to see the evolution side by side.
I prefer the looks of the older one. The new grille reminds me too much of Mater the tow truck from Cars.
Thanks for doing this review, my daily is a 2006 X5 with 190,000 miles on it. Never thought I would see one on your channel. Thanks again
Mine too... 2005 4.4 engine
Chris Seeley is it reliable?what has gone wrong amd what did it cost to get it fixed
@@clint0073 cost nothing to get fix if you do your own work ... Buy some tools ... It's easy to work on... I can't lie... The parts cheap too....
As an enthusiast, my favorite x5 is still the 2003 4.6is. The more you learn about cars in general, the less you like what manufacturers are pumping out today.
Exactly, 4.6is 347 bhp by Alpina 💪
I still think the first gen X5 is better looking than every X5 since, especially the 4.4 sport. Not to mention the manual option of which I knew somebody who actually had one.
Your sick
This perfectly displays how much larger vehicles have gotten over the years.
My mum had that exact spec E53. 3.0 I6. Same colour, same wheels, same unpainted lower bumper, same Amber indicators. 2001 model as well. Amazing car.
YES YES YES! Love this review. I’ve been waiting for someone to do review with old school vs new.THANK YOU BRO!!👍🏾💯👍🏾💯
Old X5 interior absoluty confortable.
Please do a BMW X6 2009 vs BMW X6 2019/20 comparison!!!🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
I really like these comparisons and how they've changed the car
The early 2000s seems more different compared to what I remember. The early 2000s does not seem like it was almost 20 years ago. Time flies way too fast.
I agree! And I was born in 2000.
DSTY Face it your getting older!
@@terryrodbourn2793 The blue X5 is older than I am 😂😂
The door shutting sound on the old X5 sounds SO solid 😍
It's cool you did the old and new BMW. That's why I like your videos. You always come up with something new. Keep up the great work.
Those Gen 1 X5’s with the 5MT were cool!!
Love the bloopers 😂 makes it so you dont get bored halfway through the video
I loved the concept and execution of this video! I hope you make more videos comparing vehicles from the past to their modern versions like this.
The first gen 4.6is models were my favorite of the X5. Great handling for an SUV but throw on some winter tires and they were also beasts in the snow. The older M62 motors were quirky but once you looked into the VANOS system and cooling system issues under the hood was pretty solid. Also, can't forget the gauge cluster pixels going out.
I’ll get flack for this, but I don’t think the new X5 has nearly as much class and presence now as the first gen did back in the early-00s. It also looks more like a wagon now, and not in a good way.
Meat Prison nope that’s what everyone thinks
Meat Prison the new one looks so plain and boring compared to last gen
I actually messed up one with new Kia Sorento.
For me that 1st generation X5 was really a legend. And it was available with 4.8 litre engine which was a monster. Thanks for such a nice video 👍🏻
Their driver's sure haven't changed , still got that BMW exclusive turn signal free fatality. X5 driver's are notorious for it. 🤣🤷♂
Guilty BMW driver lol
Dead meme bruh.
Awesome video! A comparison between the E39 and the current 5 series would be so cool and unique :)
I really like the old versus new comparisons. I'd be interested in seeing more of this kind of content.
I really enjoyed this review. My best friend used to have an '01 X5. They were very nice for their time. Can you do more of these old vs. new comparisons?
A fascinating comparison, quite enjoyable!
As much as I appreciate the technology on the new cars, I like BMW the best in the early 2000s, they stayed true to their roots then. I’ll be holding on to my E46 for as long as I can, especially now since you can’t even get a new 3 series with a manual.
I agree!
I actually miss when you used to do reviews on older vehicles. #OGRedLineViewer
Even today i still use 02 X5 E53 with m54b30 engine. Still drive amazing and lovely💙
Nice vid. Please do more comparisons like this
BMW reliability went down after the mid 00s
Every time I watch your reviews I can always count on SXM to be on channel 51, and I started listening to channel 51 because of your reviews LOL
Great video!
Sofyan… You are firing on all cylinders (pun intended) with these type of reviews. I am very happy you have been able to refine your channel into much more than new car reviews. Like that technical term you used @ 1:00.
\'krap tōn\: a non-quantitative unit of measure referring to a lot of something 😂
Awesome video!
At 7:15 the radio says "sucker"
That's what my 09 m5 said to me when I first bought it.
The one thats known for being uber unreliable. You played yourself playa 🤣
Love the review👍 keep up what ur doing cuz ur doing amazing!
I love these generational comparisons. You should do other brands/models 👍🏾
corvette c5 vs c6 vs c7 vs the new one please
Love car reviews like this! Old vs New
I like the older ones better in terms of steering and nimble handling. I owned the e-53 when new and it was terrific.
Nice video modern vs retro. Amazing how much bmw has accomplish
Rapidly becoming my favorite car channel.
loved this comparison! I had a 7 series from the same era (2000) and I definitely miss that heavy hydraulic steering
Nailed it with this one good job
First generation is an all time classic. Pretty solid design and has aged wonderfully, especially the facelift version 2003+
Good video idea !!!!
Nice video. Neat retrospective.
9:19 I love BMWs new chime
E53 is timeless. I always love his elegant design, taillights, grille.
Where's the rear passenger side door panel at 5:31? It's missing, lol.
I like this style of videos for the next comparison can you do a 2003 GMC Yukon Denali vs a new body style Yukon Denali?
19:07 anyone else notice his buddy bombing the video over and over again on the highway? lol!
The new BMW remembers so many random things. This being said, I would never talk smack about it while sitting in the cabin because it may remember when I shut the car off and may not start when I get back in
oh man i love this retro new vs old videos! I would love that you would do a video like this for the e46 m3 vs a new f80 or the new g20 m3! I would even let you borrow my e46 m3 to do it.
Do more videos like this. It's cool when you compare older models with newer models.
I’m looking at an x3 right now. This is a great report. The new one is huge by comparison. The original X5 is only about the size of my 2015 Jeep Cherokee.
You need to do more of these type of comparison reviews.
It’s sad to see how BMW has lost its way. No more the ultimate driving machine.
@japanwatchconnection
Dont expect a straightforward logical answer based on facts.
Hes obviously one of those "things were more authentic back then" type of people.
Ok don’t get so upset. I’m just stating the facts. Cars today are unnecessarily complicated with too much tech and styling that has become generic and cartoonish at same time. You guys seriously think that the front gigantic grill in new BMWs or many other brands looks “good”!! I have owned ,not leased,4 BMWs in my life e46 328i, e46 330i, z4 M coupe and now my current f22 m325i. This current car will be my last BMW. I will buy another new e46 or e39 BMW if BMW started making them again. Otherwise I’m keeping my last Bimmer until it dies. Then I don’t know what I’d get. Nothing out there is appealing with current generation of the cars coming out.
@@doccyber
Good...suffer eternally, no one gives a shit.
Doc, you understand that the plate says “ach nein” because people were saying the same thing TWENTY YEARS AGO. BMW has been “losing their way” since the E30, to some.
TOYOTA 1 OFF THE BIGGEST CAR BRAND,DID GREAT TO WORK WHIT BMW FOR THE 2020 SUPRA(ALREADY A BIG SALES HIT)BMW PARTS,TECH MAKES THE TOYOTA SUPRA A REAL PREMIUM SPORTCAR👍.ASK ROLLS ROYCE ABOUT THE SUPERB BUILD QAULITY AND BEST TECH THAT BMW 😁MAKES😎👍.
good comparison between bmw grille 20 years ago vs the modern one
This was great. Please do this with the M5.
The first gen is is way more appealing...
You should have shown the offroad mode for the Gen 1. Say hi to Jake for me.
There are a few things in the old one that I like more than the new one, the tail gate opening for example (I know, it's not power assisted). Gesture control? I don't like it. But it's me, maybe you like it. I guess I'm old for some things in modern cars. That big grill on the new one? I don't like it. However I like the bigger space, the more powerful engine in the new one. Anyway Sofyan, great video as usual
Facelift E53s in nice spec I think have to be one of the best looking 4x4s ever made. The pre-facelift ones are showing their age a tad now in the front end and headlights but they’re still nice.
Is it possible that you could make a similar video with the new mercedes gle450 and the ml350?
Have had a 2006, 2014 and now a 2019. Each has had the same general driving dynamics. Power train is better each time. The 19 is remarkably quick, but each newer one has a bit of "cheapness" and quirks. The newest has only a cloth screen as the roof cover, and only a VERY small opening sunroof. Only the front portion opens. The newest rides and handles better. It is also quieter. The older one had a better cubby for a small amount of change or garage door opener. the newer one has better availability for charging, but every time I start it I have to change the radio to the "presets". It will not stay on "presets" for the radio. The rear seats do not move, but the older one did. Lots of pluses and minuses but overall I am enjoying the new ride.
That's a great aftermarket screen on the old X5, it looks factory.
Awesome Video Of BMW X5. 😁
Nice soyfan, been following you since that Honda Fit video the (08 blue).
sat in one of the 1st gen as a kid, those doors were heavy.
The grills are hugeee
Sofyan you should do a comparison with a 2000 Civic and the new one lol
The737Man YEs!! That would be interesting.
Good Show.
I think TH-cam is listening to me, there was an advert for the BMW X5
I’m scared
No one mentioning the E53 has one smoked rear turn signal. Lol
I miss my E53. It was bulletproof.
New vehicles are cool, but I honestly like the simplicity of the designs of cars from 8+ years ago. I have a 2005 Toyota Camry and I prefer mine over my sisters 2019 XSE.
Can you do the Acura MDX next?
I've actually seen first generation X5 with 3rd row seats they're rare but they're out there
jarock121197 any pics of it
@@soccer2000fy no lol it was at an auction this was like a year ago
@@jarock121197
probably saw an E70, not an E53.
You might need to tell the owner of the old x5 to recharge the A/C system. My dad had the same thing with the x3 after he got it. I mean they are just similar
Hey at least the first gen had a manual option and actually looked good ...
Great comparo
20:45 lol classic northern Virginia move right there.
The 01 is very clean it aged nice
That 2001 BMW has an owner that doesn't really give a shit lol. Shame cause I've been in them and they're really nice cars for how old they are
Current owner here - I bought it in June and it was a one-owner car from 2003 to early 2019. It's amazing how some folks will keep it up (ish) mechanically but ignore all cosmetics. It was super gross when I bought it and what you see in the video is after an 8 hour cleaning session. I would LOVE a nice 4.8is by comparison!
Came across this video 1 week after getting my silver 2001 x5 3.0i
Towed :( R.I.P
As owner of '14 X5 i have to say that i love mine. But, my kids hate no rear reclining seats for long trips. Depreciation is huge which sucks for such expensive vehicle.
@06:37 shots fired 😃
The plates😂😂
09:55 «Would have preferred a rectangular gauge cluster..» I like the fancy shape-it’s another variation on the «Hofmeister kink» that you see in many different parts of the car. If you want boring rectangles, get a Rolls-Royce!
Please compare a first gen explorer to a new one (or navigator)
That old X5 still looks nice to me to this day ~~ :)
I dont like how the new X5 front fascia makes it look like an X3. Wish it looked more agressive
Older ones are much more reliable. I wouldn’t touch a new bmw or Mercedes
Well new one have probably over 100 newew tech so you know more wires mean more problems
Bmw has gotten very reliable nowadays. You gotta try it before you judge.
@@Twincam808 bro. Who you kidding lol
@@Twincam808 new BMW's are worst. Ill still pick E53 over new X5 tbh
Saab Railfan yes stick with that because that’s all you can afford.
The 2nd gen X5 is the most sexy/aggressive looking in my opinion
X5 335D diesel makes it best. It's made in USA Spartanberg SC and big discounts available when I bought one
A new car versus 20 year old car comparison is very hard to do, cos it's hard to find an old car that has been restored or fully refreshed, which would make the most fair comparison. I mean, nonfunctioning a/c, trifecta error codes, worn out engine mounts and bushings, etc... I bet if he had a 5speed manual X5 it would have been different too, cos those are a hoot to drive. $70,000 versus $3000 for a E53 3.0i (up to $15,000 for a 4.6is or 4.8is), still would rather have the old car. A lot more tactile and cheaper to operate.
The whole frame shook when he shut the door close on the older one 😂
