The X5 serves its purpose and does it very well for the price. You basically get quite a bit of cool techie stuff for around $60k. My wife has a F15 X5 and we use it primarily as a baby mover and weekend lunch-mobile with the in-laws. I have a lowered F06 640i and even though it has the 'cool' factor and luxury seating, etc. , the X5 will win in comfort and practicality any day. If I had to drive around Los Angeles all day to run errands, etc., I would pick the X5 over any M and non-M sedans/coupes, including my car. I totally agree with 'carfection'.
