there are several reasons I don't like about X5, although I drive 4.8 V8

1. the V8 engine is only about 350hp, 350 torque, it is not enough for me, no power
2. the SUV is too heavy
3. the transmission is too slow
4. the premium sound I feel not good, although my X5 has fully loaded with M-sport
5. oil consumption is around 15L/100 in summer, and 16.5L/100 in winter
6. car wash is a huge task.

in conclusion, I prefer to drive small car with more horsepower, such as M3 or C63 rather than drive SUV.
