1. you'd driven both the ML350 bluetec and the Porsche cayenne before purchsing the X5 Cayenne being the sportiest in its class and the ML being the most luxurious and confy.
2. The gearbox has 8 gears, not 6.
3. You are correct. WannabeSS needs to read up on it a little more.
4. I know this is late, but the diesels that were put in the 09-2011 335d and 09-2013 X5 35d had a Bi-turbo system that at certain RPM ranges would switch from the smaller turbo to the bigger turbo. The redesigned 2014 X5 35d diesel will have 1 turbo.
5. Great to hear you didnt settle for the shitty plastic interiors in GM n US Ford.
6. started out watching this and hated it...at first... kept watching and really enjoyed your review
7. My dad wants a Barfcadia...ugh
8. My sentiments exactly. I just bought a 2013 with the premium package and the sport package with the 20" rims, BMW apps and the automatic head lights. This thing is AWESOME.
9. Why can't people pronounce Touareg?
10. No im telling ya they never went to a twin scroll on the diesels. The gas Inline 6 engine was switched to a twin scroll single turbo. The early gas N54 engine used twin turbos. Look up BMW M57 diesel engine. 
11. The diesel engine is still a 'twin scroll' single turbo. It just spools twice but cures the reliability issues that the twin turbos had.
12. Nope all the diesels are twin turbo, the BMW N54 engine has the twin turbos, In 2011 the Made the N55 single turbo
13. Yea it is a 'twin scroll single turbo' lol
14. And I was pretty sure BMW switched twin turbos on 2012 instead they started to use new kind single turbo with 2 modes!
15. I thought 2012 X5 come with 8 speed transmission!!!
16. Smooth. Very easy to do triple digits in this thing. 
17. How does it do on the highway 
18. Sure is.
19. is that cinnamon colored interior 
20. sorry, i thought it has 286 hp
