It's kinda tricky to judge older BMWs because a lot of the refinement and driving feel depends on the bushings and mounts. People usually don't maintain those and the driving difference between a car with old tired bushings/shocks and new bits is pretty damn noticeable. This also applies to classic cars, to an extent

I prefer the looks of the older one. The new grille reminds me too much of Mater the tow truck from Cars.

Please do more reviews like this. It's nice to see the evolution side by side.

As an enthusiast, my favorite x5 is still the 2003 4.6is. The more you learn about cars in general, the less you like what manufacturers are pumping out today.

It's cool you did the old and new BMW. That's why I like your videos. You always come up with something new. Keep up the great work.

Those Gen 1 X5’s with the 5MT were cool!!

I loved the concept and execution of this video! I hope you make more videos comparing vehicles from the past to their modern versions like this.

The first gen 4.6is models were my favorite of the X5. Great handling for an SUV but throw on some winter tires and they were also beasts in the snow. The older M62 motors were quirky but once you looked into the VANOS system and cooling system issues under the hood was pretty solid. Also, can't forget the gauge cluster pixels going out.

I really enjoyed this review. My best friend used to have an '01 X5. They were very nice for their time. Can you do more of these old vs. new comparisons?

As much as I appreciate the technology on the new cars, I like BMW the best in the early 2000s, they stayed true to their roots then. I’ll be holding on to my E46 for as long as I can, especially now since you can’t even get a new 3 series with a manual.

E53 is timeless. I always love his elegant design, taillights, grille.

Ok don’t get so upset. I’m just stating the facts. Cars today are unnecessarily complicated with too much tech and styling that has become generic and cartoonish at same time. You guys seriously think that the front gigantic grill in new BMWs or many other brands looks “good”!! I have owned ,not leased,4 BMWs in my life e46 328i, e46 330i, z4 M coupe and now my current f22 m325i. This current car will be my last BMW. I will buy another new e46 or e39 BMW if BMW started making them again. Otherwise I’m keeping my last Bimmer until it dies. Then I don’t know what I’d get. Nothing out there is appealing with current generation of the cars coming out.

Do more videos like this. It's cool when you compare older models with newer models.

The new BMW remembers so many random things. This being said, I would never talk smack about it while sitting in the cabin because it may remember when I shut the car off and may not start when I get back in

oh man i love this retro new vs old videos! I would love that you would do a video like this for the e46 m3 vs a new f80 or the new g20 m3! I would even let you borrow my e46 m3 to do it.

I’m looking at an x3 right now. This is a great report. The new one is huge by comparison. The original X5 is only about the size of my 2015 Jeep Cherokee.

Shouldn't you used a better example there are 2001 in better shape I get the overall point.

There are a few things in the old one that I like more than the new one, the tail gate opening for example (I know, it's not power assisted). Gesture control? I don't like it. But it's me, maybe you like it. I guess I'm old for some things in modern cars. That big grill on the new one? I don't like it. However I like the bigger space, the more powerful engine in the new one. Anyway Sofyan, great video as usual

Hey at least the first gen had a manual option and actually looked good ...

Facelift E53s in nice spec I think have to be one of the best looking 4x4s ever made. The pre-facelift ones are showing their age a tad now in the front end and headlights but they’re still nice.

Have had a 2006, 2014 and now a 2019. Each has had the same general driving dynamics. Power train is better each time. The 19 is remarkably quick, but each newer one has a bit of "cheapness" and quirks. The newest has only a cloth screen as the roof cover, and only a VERY small opening sunroof. Only the front portion opens. The newest rides and handles better. It is also quieter. The older one had a better cubby for a small amount of change or garage door opener. the newer one has better availability for charging, but every time I start it I have to change the radio to the "presets". It will not stay on "presets" for the radio. The rear seats do not move, but the older one did. Lots of pluses and minuses but overall I am enjoying the new ride.

You should have shown the offroad mode for the Gen 1. Say hi to Jake for me.

Please compare a first gen explorer to a new one (or navigator)

No one mentioning the E53 has one smoked rear turn signal. Lol

You might need to tell the owner of the old x5 to recharge the A/C system. My dad had the same thing with the x3 after he got it. I mean they are just similar

3.0i is reliable, but never get a BMW as a first car. I’m order to maintain a BMW you need the premium gas and the proper oil, there’s no cheating out on BMWs, if you do which most people do.. then reliability problems are going to kick you. And when things break, it’s expensive, don’t get expensive mixed with reliability. Most BMWs are reliable, just expensive when you screw up. If you want a first car get a Honda or Toyota - anything lowered because you’ll get to cheap oil on oil and gas. BMWs are expensive. Do not buy one, this goes for Mercedes, Audi, Porsche, and Range Rover.

As owner of '14 X5 i have to say that i love mine. But, my kids hate no rear reclining seats for long trips. Depreciation is huge which sucks for such expensive vehicle.
