Filmed at 3,000ft. For an SUV that weighs 5,000+lbs this X5 has very good pick up. Actually at times it felt a little odd accelerating this fast in such a big SUV. Its like watching an out of shape looking person who should be slow but they're not. Overall the X5 drives very nice, it isn't boaty, its actually quite nimble for its size and is fun to drive. Yes its kind of a pig on gas and yes its challenging to maneuver the tight downtown streets but it doesn't matter because it is a very nice SUV and very spacious.
