Nice review! People think 'OK it's a powerful performance SUV but as you clearly defined it's SOOO much more than that. The driving road feel is something that instills confidence when driving at the upper limit.
I just bought a 2017 X5M and wouldn't trade it for the world! Nothing out there comes close pound for pound. The Range Rover Sport SVR probably is the next best option in my opinion....
I don't understand how people can never give Cadillac credit for anything when it's clear that they've improved over time and continue to do better and better. They are the only American brand that can truly compete and in some cases surpass the Germans. I have a BMW E36 M3 and it has been going strong for a long time and continues to do so. I have driven recent Cadillac V models specifically and I have been blown away at how great they handle and perform. I just have to give credit where credit is due great job Cadillac keep up the work. I will be buying another car very soon and Cadillac will definitely be on my list. The X5 in my opinion is really not a good all around choice.If I want a vehicle I can tow a boat with and truly go off-roading I'll take my business to Range Rover.
Demy E We never said that Cadillac didn't improve they did and i love the CTS-V but what we are against is people who said there better than BMW when they aren't BMW been doing it's sports car/ Luxury cars from along time and Cadillac isn't as good as BMW
Would have been great if, instead of cutting to stock track footage that is available via BMW, that you could dig into the features of the vehicle if you're just going to be putting around town in the review. Like the storage capacity, electronics, features, etc.
EDDY SENG Two twin scrolls I do believe. So yes it is a twin turbo. The motor is the N63tu I’m pretty sure. Massive power. The sound is amazing. Don’t let anyone tell you different.
American made Tesla P100D is roughly the same price as this X5 M, and the BMW doesn't stand a chance in a drag race even if the Tesla was pulling a trailer with an X5M in it.
Nothing wrong with a BMW. But a BMW suv is not a track car like the video is trying to make it out to be. You can only do so much with an SUV. It'll never perform like a proper sports car on the track. We're talking about this video applauding the X5's prowess on the track when in fact there are plenty of cars costing much less than the X5 M that perform much better on the track. You can love the German SUV as much as you want, but that doesn't make it a performer on the track. Considering it costs a staggering 100+ K, there are cars that offer much better value out there.
I have a 2015 Srt jeep and have been tossing the idea around between an x5 m or a lightly used Audi rs7. I realize completely different platforms. I've done 0-60 in 4.2 seconds in my jeep in ice cold air and I ran against an x5m and after 30 mph I got raped. This suv is incredibly fast. I trapped 103.5 mph in the quarter where as these go north of 112. Huge huge difference. Hemi 6.4 l is balls out of the hole no doubt. That huge NA power and torque hit hard off the line but once these turbos force feed that 4.4l I got walked bad. Is it worth 50 grand more than my jeep. I'm still debating this . Great video. On a side note caddys also aren't over a hundred grand so I don't quite get the caddy bashing here.
westy44cal No bro, simple bolt on upgrades will nicely increase the performance of your jeep, Cold air intake, headers, exhaust and a good tune is an easy 50hp gain, let alone of you supercharge. Even with those upgrades it's still cheaper than paying all that money for those high maintenance german pieces of shit
westy44cal I just went from a 2012 Jeep srt to an f10 M5. Same platform I believe. More power for sure! The srt is no slouch. The x5M is about 25% above the Jeep in terms of performance and quality. Worth the extra cash if you have it.
Actually I have the f10 M5 which has the same motor. It sounds like a beast. It’s 4.4 liter and the factory M performance exhaust on the performance package is tuned and sounds really nice. No drone at all! Hear it rev in person and you will change your mind. It gurgles a little and had a bit of a popping sound when shifting gears at wot and downshifting in sport plus mode. It’s quiet when you need it to be and sounds mean when you are in the throttle.
For roughly the same price you can get the top of the food chain Tesla P100D. 2.5 sec to 60 mph, is in a different time zone than the 4.? this X5 M can do. Well, one thing you don't get with the Tesla is all that engine noise.
x5m will murder that car around a track. the acceleration is just a dumb party trick only good for off the line. put it on a rolling start and a base carerra will pull away immediately.
not arguing with the track part vs the Tesla, but if I buy a car I plan to take to the track, the last thing I'm gonna get is an SUV. By design you can only do so much with it. For the 100k+ price there are at least 100 cars that will man handle the X5 M on the track. That includes M cars from BMW and the likes of the Nissan GTR and plenty of others from Porsche and so on. For that price, the X5 M is not the top of the food chain in anything including the track. And there are cars at half the price that will give it a run for it's money in 0 to 60. Half the price!!
A JGC SRT is almost as fast and can go further off road. The 1 sec faster time in a 1/4 mile for the X5M isn't worth the extra 50 grand. I'd rather add it to my kids college fund or invest in my business. And if money is no object, I'd get a Porsche Cayenne Turbo S and simply destroy the X5M on/offroad.
man that shit is old and over priced by a used one for $50 grand like 3years old it looks the same and you can say you got a BMW better make sure you get warranty $$$$
"Porsche didnt start making high performance cars till much later" seriously?!?!? can you please not talk about cars ever again!! even when u r alone in the toilet... just dont!!
Furthermore, AMG was founded before M. And the comparable Cayenne, is not the GTS but rather a Turbo. I looked this video up because I'm interested in an X5M but this is too much uneducated verbal diarrhea. All Ms sound great my a**....
As you drive it just make sure you will come and do a similar documentary when it spend more time at the garage than it does on the road and you get the real meaning of BMW (bring my wallet). Don't forget it please because I know very soon you will know what an over-engineered junk you have bought

What I absolutely love about every X5M review is the smile it puts on faces when people accelerate hard! Makes me want an X5M now.
I found 1 with 25k miles for 48k

Thanks for helping me make a informed decision. This Truck is scheduled to be added to my fleet. Good job man!
Stunning car….i LOVE mine. Would have liked red interior though, but i am very happy with my X5M❤️
X5m is one of the best cars on the road.
finally a channel that did a decent review of the X5M

If it wasn't for Obama wasting tax payer money on GM there would be no Cadillac.

Ron’s arms are so nice.
if I'm not wrong that engine has twin turbos not twin scroll.
Yes, that's correct
The Blogs Correct, ALL M cars are now twin turbo, otherwise it is the twin scroll turbo for non M's
M2 isn't twin turbo...
EDDY SENG
Two twin scrolls I do believe. So yes it is a twin turbo. The motor is the N63tu I’m pretty sure. Massive power. The sound is amazing. Don’t let anyone tell you different.
@@CaseCuatroNueve the first one wasn't, the new one is now since they started putting the M3/4's engine on the (the S55).
The engine bay that u showed around 1:23 is from the old one, the new one looks different, the old is nicer tho i find
The Cayenne looks like a girls toy compared to the X5M.

Facts
BMW X5M, I dub thee - Haulapalooza!
This was a great review. Thank you
american cars are shity, german cars are the best. BMW is premium, is not for everybody like american's cars.
American made Tesla P100D is roughly the same price as this X5 M, and the BMW doesn't stand a chance in a drag race even if the Tesla was pulling a trailer with an X5M in it.
I am not russian, and i do nut buy a car for drag racing, a car for drag never quits from a drag map. think positive.

not in canada
Nothing like an American Tesla

if your debating wasn't a yes right away, I say stick with the srt 50k more is a lot more money for something that's hardly better in everyday use

Honestly where this car goes birds wont fly there for a week. If Frankenstein is alive now days he would own one for sure
westy44cal get a trackhawk.
to your intro... how in the blue hell can a GM be better than a BMW? who is saying that? drunk journalists? lmao.
Your a Rock fan . . .
Atsv>m3&m4 I have a c63 better than both
Rob B. Jsmv, my
Will12 Will12
GM is not better. plz
Will12 Will12 lol funny
Great video
is this a review, or a commercial?
If his kids not used to that kind of luxury, chances are he can't afford it either
When AMG and Porsche came out with high performance cars before momentum. Bruh 😂
Cayenne Turbo S would be the bimmer’s real rival actually, and it costs 1.5x the X5M’s price tag...so bimmer is the best tradeoff
dont try to diss cadillac an kiss bmw's ass at the sametime..
3:25 "it sounds great"
but the audio tuning in this video doesn't sound great.
how much?
~$115,000 loaded out. Not too many options on the list as most everything is standard.
cayenne gts in the uk is 20k cheaper than the x5m
The seats are like sitting in a church pew
This jerk whistle did not mention that
I have this car and the seats are rather comfortable.
Chris F you must be in a church ATM
Sounds like a holy experience. Bless BMW.
If you told me all of this in person I would not disagree with them guns.
Ats v and Cts v are better than m cars??? The ones with the shitty interiors and transmissions that always have problems ?
only con is 16 mpg wow much efficiency
To be quite honest it looks great but sounds like a 1.4litre and not a V8 at all.
Actually I have the f10 M5 which has the same motor. It sounds like a beast. It’s 4.4 liter and the factory M performance exhaust on the performance package is tuned and sounds really nice.

German cars with over 350 hp and only 165 mg CO2 against US cars with the same power but 375 mg CO2 have more respect for climate!
And to think I got my 2008 X5 4.8i up to 145 and it was purring at that speed and it's not an "M" :-)

I put a the letter M on my X5 and it did NOT get better. WTH! Stop spreading rumors.
bmw x5 is better than Porsche cayenne special in look, the cayenne look as Japan car
please do not put pictures of other cars in a review )
A JGC SRT is almost as fast and can go further off road. The 1 sec faster time in a 1/4 mile for the X5M isn't worth the extra 50 grand.

Bmw reuls king of cars. .that soap box suv frome jeep and porsche standing still..BMW first and best info system (I drive).
exactly
nice BMW commercial....
man that shit is old and over priced by a used one for $50 grand like 3years old it looks the same and you can say you got a BMW better make sure you get warranty $$$$
worst review of all time... all BMW hype
no interest in this SUV im going to watch this anywise.
Jeep SRT best overall performance SUV out there..
zbib43 no....
JEEP just a peace of shit!!
Okay. But, how much did BMW pay you to kiss their ass? 😂
lmaoo
"Porsche didnt start making high performance cars till much later"
seriously?!?!? can you please not talk about cars ever again!! even when u r alone in the toilet... just dont!!
Furthermore, AMG was founded before M. And the comparable Cayenne, is not the GTS but rather a Turbo. I looked this video up because I'm interested in an X5M but this is too much uneducated verbal diarrhea. All Ms sound great my a**....
Cayenne GTS will kick its ass - and has a way better interior than BMW crappy styling
I'm sorry man...
But, nooooooooo waaaaaaaay!!!
, ,m ,, ,, ,,,
a truck does better
American cars are shitt and uglies can’t beat Germans
He looks like a fatter Simon Cowell
But this car would only work for few months then broke down. LOL
As you drive it just make sure you will come and do a similar documentary when it spend more time at the garage than it does on the road and you get the real meaning of BMW (bring my wallet). Don't forget it please because I know very soon you will know what an over-engineered junk you have bought
Range Rover svr waaaay better
+Cars Life over priced
legit review
Clearly somebody is not a fan of GM lol
