Still worth it. Drives like a tiger with soothing "growl" .

Be prepared to pour more money into a 7-8 year old Beemer. Unlike Infinity and other Jap and Korean cars, German cars swallow money like a drunken German at Octoberfest.

If you drive more on city roads, , V8 is an overkill and will burn your engine and engine bay. V6 would be more suitable.

If you want an Interstate cruiser, V8 is a TIGER.
Thanks for the feedback. We have mixed driving highway and city. Most of the city roads are 45mph and the highway 70mph+

I was going to search warranty companies to see if anything recommended one of another. Never bought on in the past but sounds like it may be worth my time to look if I am looking at a used X5

Have you had any of the dreaded issue with the N63? I was reading about some law suit settlement just this morning.
