I've watched movies while driving and still had backseat passengers quite surprised when they take a look back there and don't see some huge enclosure taking up half the trunk.

No doubt about that. The passive radiator setup they've got as the "sub" on the DSP hifi system is pathetic. My E39 M5 has way better factory subs (M-Audio package Nokia free air subs) but the X5 has much better midbass simply due to the fact that the speakers are bigger. It doesnt hurt that there is a ton more air volume in the cabin either. For $150, this sounds like a grand slam. I just wanted to hear it to get an idea because Im a bit anal.
