My husband is wanting a BMW XM( he said he would prefer the Red Line and I tried explaining to him that that is limited edition but he is willing to travel to get one). I wanted to see what people’s opinions are for those who own one. Do you like it? What do you like about it? What do you hate about it?

He has test driven it and loves the ride but also wanted a second opinion. (Though to be honest I think he is just gonna buy it by the end of month because he keeps talking about how great it will be for our road trip to Texas)

    It’s no better or faster than an X5M, much uglier, less practical, and in Canada at least it’s effectively double the price. Base X5M is $136k, XM Red Line in $260k. Terrible value for an ugly car with a sort of funky interior.

    If he wants a cool SUV and must spend at least a quarter-mil on it for some reason I would go straight for a G63 AMG. It’s truly unlike any other car you can buy, it’s charming, good looking, and one of the few mass produced vehicles assembled by hand. Or a Range Rover.
