I am wanting a change, and am considering the x5m 2010 or the x5 50 2011 or x5m 2011.

Please advise in not only the differences between or why I should go one way or another.

I like the ride of the gts and the adjustable suspension.
I have 2 kids and a wife.

Would like the 3rd row but don't mind the the M cannot have this option. How's seat comfort? I'm 6 feet 2 inches. Back seat comfort/ room for passengers?

Cluster display variances? Heads up color differences? Different options detween different models? Vs the 2010/2011?

I would opt for the comfort seats in any vehicle.

I'm just trying to gather all diffrrences between them so please be as specific as possible.

And then after all that tell me if you'd even make the move
from porsche to BMW, or is that a step back?

I am particular to fit and finish, enjoy stitched leather, comfort access, lighting packages, stuff like that.

How the reliability of the BMW X5 models I've mentioned? Will it be in yhe shop alot? My Porsche has been flawless no maint issues at all!

Thanks all.

Have you been able/or are you able to go test drive either vehicle? This should give a good indication which vehicle suits you best.

Personally i think the 2011 X5M would be the pick of the three, having given time for BMW to fix any niggles the new 2010 X5M might have had.

There are plenty of ways to individualise the X's , and again the best bet is to check the bmw configurator or go to a dealer asking for brochure. There is also plenty of information on this site. is your friend.

With regards to whether or not it is a step back is a matter of personal opinion, just like whether you think the cayenne is actually a good looking car or not.

Please let us know how you go with your decision.
