Not so cute when you get owned by an X5M on the road or track. It's as fast as an E92 M3 on the Nurburgring and just as quick as the new M3/M4 on the straight. It corners at .98G, not many sport cars can come close. With a tune, it runs low 11s.

It's a monster. I came from an F80 M3. The X5M is at another level as far as luxury, sound, and power.

Exactly what a normal SUV owner intends on doing with it. No BMW SUV is easy on the eyes. Come on maybe .0001% of x5M owners will ever track. There is no appeal to packing all that power in a family mover to about 99% of the people on this planet. It just doesn't make sense.
