2006 BMW X5 3.0i review from North America

Nothing has gone wrong so far.

Comfort:

Most people say these BMW seats are very hard, and I don't really see how they are hard. The seats are rather comfortable, mine has the premium package, so I got the Dakota Leather, or I think it is, either way it's nice. Also, the interior is pretty silent, all you can hear is your inline-6, very good sound as well as the exhaust.

Style:

Looks beautiful in every way, looks sorta like a Range Rover in my garage, the cars pretty big, interior is very simplistic yet sophisticated, love the panoramic sunroof, and the red gauges at night. Rims, even though it's a 3.0i look fantastic, don't let pictures deceive you.

Technology:

The adaptive xenons are awesome at night, do not skip out on them if your buying any car.

Safety:

This car, although haven't been in a crash (knock on wood) the build quality is wonderful, from the big heavy doors, to the many airbags the brochure shows is amazing, makes me feel very very safe.

Size:

Big backseat, could probably sit like 5 people if you tried. Trunk is rather big as well, although I don't really carry big loads of objects in it.

Reliability:

Rock solid, all I can say.

Only bad thing about it is that you're gonna feel so far away from the person next to you since like I mentioned before, this is a big car. And if you don't like people staring at you, then don't purchase this SUV.
