My question: Why are there more '15 and later X5 on Craigstlist than E53s?
I'm going to guess a few reasons:
1) Production is a lot higher now., so there are more recent X5s than original.
2) E53s get totaled in basically any accident.
3) E53s are at a point in their price / maintenance cost curve where it frequently makes sense to junk them rather than put money in.

Net-net, E53 numbers are rapidly decreasing. New X5s keep pouring off the line. And people largely lease new ones, so the turnover rate is very high.
