Why you should buy an X5M
Because this car is insane.
The car on its own is great, but coupled with a tune and a good exhaust system it becomes a mad man. I daydream sometimes about an ML63, and that sure is a fine car. However, there's something about the X5M that just kicks ass. Maybe it's the super heavy steering, maybe it's how absolutely planted it is. Or maybe it's that in M and Sport mode it really, almost literally, drives like a P car. Except it's big and has road presence.
I've done some BS red light blasts in my previous AMG's, some I won, and some I lost. I'm talking against of your run of the mill stuff - M5's, E63's, E55's, Porsche various 911's, anything and almost everything American, etc..! However, in the X5M I have not found another car that can win decisively. The launch in this car is unreal. You're basically peaking in 2'nd while the guy next to you is still in the middle of his shift. Happens every time. By then it's already too late.
Anyhow, that's just my thoughts.
