 Detailed review:

The BMW CPO program is fantastic! I have bought three cars with this program ( Certified Pre Owned) and gotten 3.9% interest each time and a 100k warranty after the 4/50 warranty expires. I have an excellent relationship with my service manager and I feel well taken care of by my dealership, Richmond BMW. The X5 I bought had the 'kinks' worked out as reported accurately by many owners ( interior door handles, brake line, etc) which is why I always buy used vs new, especially with a new model. I recommend this SAV as it is the 'only' one that drives like a BMW, naturally. I have had BMWs since college so you do get addicted to the way they feel and no other car can match it. Lexus SUV is too feminine and all the others are too 'trucklike' for me. I dont go offroad and I dont carry children or the associated cargo that comes with them. For a single guy with no kids, this is a perfect imagemobile for me. ENJOY!
