The diesel was nice and torquey but I'm not sure I liked the transmission as much and TrueDelta suggests that the diesel has a number of emissions system reliability problems.
Also, is there any good breakdown of the options packages available somewhere? I found the order sheet, but it is less than clear on what actually comes with any given package.
Thanks!

One of my friend purchased a brand new Lexus and had major trouble with it... then he got rid of it and proclaimed Lexus to be the worst reliability autos in the world... But we all know that Lexus is one of the best in the market... in this case his opinion is only limited to their own experience
With that said... Post LCI X5 would be the best in reliability since BMW engineers have had lots of time to fix the problems... Generally most people that are informed do not get the first year in new model cars since again generally they tend to have most issues...
