the new X5 4.8 costs 350,000/-

i drove it; excellent ride & handling, nice cornering, sufficient acceleration, etc... but still something amiss! the interiors seem very outdated, the vehicle looks a little... cute, and at the same time a little out of proportion with a broad base and a narrow top (kinda like an A). The 3.0 engine is cheaper but very sluggish coz the vehicle is way too heavy.

as an all rounder, i doubt if the 4.8 is worth that much money!
