"Too many problems and days in the shop" on by jblumhorst
Pros: Drives like a sports car. It's the best handling SUV I've ever owned. Corners great, brakes are fabulous. The turbochaged diesel is an AWESOME small tow vehicle; we tow 5000 pounds in the mountains with great control and acceleration.
Cons: The electrical system is nightmare. My car was in 10+ times in the first 10 months. When you open a door, the car "wakes up" and stays awake for 17 minutes -- and runs the battery down.
Summary: I will never buy another BMW. Google "dead batteries and BMW's"

"Looks awesome, awesome interior. Quality product" on by mohanman
Pros: Love the interior. Lots of features. Feels like a very sturdy ride, yet sporty. Picks up chicks.. I think.
Cons: Slightly bumpy. Not an off-road vehicle. Computer thingy takes a while to learn how to use.
Summary: Awesome car.. my first BMW. If it weren't for the bumpiness this would get a 5/5.
