Far too many posts on here are people hating on others choice of car. Guess what, not everyone wants a racecar with a gazillion horsepower that is not even useful on most roads except the autobahn. Here are some of the regulars

People just buy so and so BMW for the badge. That’s okay. People buy Rolex, Patek, LV for the logo too. Sometimes people just want to feel like they’ve achieved something they aspired to. No need to shit on them

BMW X1 is just a mini…yeah And? Minis are great cars too and X1 is actually one of the best in its class especially with regards to space and that is reason enough to buy it, badge aside

I don’t get why people buy the X2/X4/X6( insert even numbered car here), they are slow, large, less space etc. Again different reasons for people to buy a car. Some of these are actually pretty cars. And some people like pretty looking things.
Also if whatever car is not your thing, just jog on. No need to comment. Literally scroll past!
Argh!
I bought my first BMW a couple days ago - an X5. I wanted a luxury SUV with high-end interior, all the tech bells and whistles, with a responsive driving experience.
Well the compacts I tried felt a little cramped so I looked at the Audi Q7 and Mercedes GLE 350/450 and was underwhelmed by the interior of the Audi and the engines of the Mercedes. That’s when I noticed the X5 which was well reviewed and then I loved test driving it. When I started my car search, BMW wasn’t even on my radar, but proven performance and reputation paved the way.
Power wise I think x5 is the best in is class, I even cross shop a CPO cayenne, but my budget only allows the base model and it lacks the features that x5 offers and still little cheaper.
