I enjoy the x5d for the following reasons:
- passing power on the highway is impressive
- diesel costs quite a bit less than premium and I'm getting 23mpg!
- i thought the sound of the engine was going to annoy me... It doesn't, I love it
- the 4 door comfort access is great, one thing I hate about the 3er comfort access is that it doesn't work on the rear doors but on the x5 all of the doors work
- the 3rd row is better than presented on this forum. Very happy with the utility of the 3rd row for our children. Definitely not "useless"!
- the thing is planted in the corners and the breaks are solid
- idrive is great. The navi and iPod interface is so much better than others I've played with
- the sparkling bronze metallic is a great color as is the tobacco interior.
- the backup camera is very well done

Cheers!
