Yes, they are. e70 X5's are in that price range where they show up in buy here pay here lots. Folks who buy at those dealers are subprime and really dont have the money to drive this vehicle. But yet want to look like they can drive an expensive car. Their friends are like its too plain bro!

They are generally in their 20s and dress them up with purple HIDs, rims, etc. Only the lighting mods are paid for by credit card, the rims and tires are rented. Yes you can rent rims by the week.

The 1st time something goes wrong the new "owner" can't get afford to get the car repaired. So the X5 is repoed as the owner can only afford repairs or payments not both. So the slow downward spiral for some X5s begins where they're modded to crap and not maintained and abandoned has begun. They can be an excellent deal if you pay cash and can fix them yourself.

Same thing happens in pickups. How many folks buy their 5 year old pickup and spend thousands lifting them, then can't afford to maintain and drive them, so they end up for sale used. Sadly none of their mods add any resale value and they're further behind.
