2004 BMW X5 Reviews, Pricing & Specs
What owners say
"Overall, drivers find the 2004 BMW X5 to be a solid and enjoyable SUV that combines performance with luxury. Many owners appreciate its powerful engine, smooth handling, and spacious interior, often describing it as a great vehicle for both daily driving and long trips. However, some drivers do mention concerns about its gas mileage and high maintenance costs. The ride can feel a bit harsh at times, and a few feel it drives more like a truck than a sedan."
Incredible handling and acceleration, especially considering this is a 2.5 ton vehicle! A little thirsty and requires premium fuel, but this is an absolute PLEASURE to drive. Long road trip in an X5? No problem! Little Rock to Cleveland was a smooth enjoyable trip. Maintenance can be costly, but it IS a BMW. Gas mileage isn't the greatest... I average about 19mpg in the city and 26mpg on the highway. Great comfortable vehicle. I love it.
July 31, 2009Performance - acceleration is brutal, braking very powerful, handling very responsive Build Quality - never needed repairs Appearance - interior design is amazing and exterior styling is great Cost of Ownership - gas mileage spends lots of gas, maintenance is a bit expensive Fun Factor - very fast, powerful and fun car to drive
August 11, 2009I liked the look, mileage and brand when I first saw the car. The dealer was willing to negotiate on the price, which made it more affordable. It was also clean and available for collection. This car is a lot of fun to drive, and feels very safe.

May 21, 2015Probably the most perfect car out there. Both quick and powerful, but also practical.
February 5, 2008The BMW X5 is a solid and reliable car, it drives with pleasure, it is spacious and silent. The engine is very progressive and there are many accessories, some of which I have never used.
March 21, 2024This SUV drives like a car. Gives you the safe feeling and will never let you down. It has power and comfort at all times. It is the perfect family car. Both back seats fold flat gives you a lot of cargo space. German Engineering always unquestionable..
February 13, 2014A great SUV (BMW calls it an SAV) that's more of a performance sedan than truck. Tight suspension and very responsive. Tremendous agility considering the weight and center of gravity. Very quick to 60, and fast as hell for its type. Panoramic moon roof makes for a very cool interior vibe.
April 18, 200823.5 MPG for a 5800 lb fully loaded Sport Utility Vehicle at 80mph is pretty darn good. A very stable fun driving highway SUV. luxury and sport. Haven't had any issues yet. Can't get the wife out of it long enough for an oil change.
February 14, 2009come on its a bmw really nice car and super sensitive throttle and brakes. its like a race car if you were to floor it it would take off it has nice leather seats and interior. a great car to own
June 25, 2010Nice color. Accelerates and brakes great. No squeaks or rattles. Low-maintenance. Service at dealers is great. Nice design, inside and out. Roomy, good amount of cargo space. Power everything. Decent mileage. Solid, quiet, comfortable, fun to drive. Great on long and short trips.
