But X5 is going to make me look like driving my dad's car....

3onDubs · 01-09-2008, 06:57 PM

I'd consider the X5 for the family, but not for a daily driver or anything

We're already on the 10th page!

3onDubs · 01-09-2008, 06:58 PM

For daily driving, the smaller the better....an m roadster is ideal imo

A long road trip or up ski trip is good too!

Okay new topic, anyone ever consider or picture themselves driving a 5 series? Or X series?

Only the M5

Yeah, but even then, i'd prefer a pick up truck (ski trip), because when you're done boarding, you can just throw the snow covered/dirty board in the back and not worry about it.

Didn't top gear have show about the M5 and they were annoyed by...something, i don't remember, something to do with the computer

Or just take a friend's car and not worry about it.

What year is your X3? I find the new ones have a much more refined ride. At least the loaner.

The 5 is a bit boatish but a pretty nice ride IMO.

M5 as an exception.

The X3 was a 2004 I believe (lease was up, he bought a GTI). The interior was too boring imo. The only nice thing about it is the sunroof.
