Funny you started this thread because I'm in dilema and have mine for sale now but will probably pull it off the market soon.
https://www.facebook.com/marketplace...27697699529314 Getting tired of internet experts telling me how much it's worth and offering $3k while probably not having $300 in their pocket. The only reason I just bought 2019 X3 M40i was almost a curiosity to experience the B58 and it doesn't dissapoint. Plus my 13 year old loves the CarPlay, lol. But, in many aspects, E53 X5 is simply better SUV (minus power and mpg) and even though I use to own 4.6is, I find 3.0 enough for everyday use. So yeah, I think I'll be keeping mine for some future now.

I won't sell mine until someone offers me $30k plus for it. So, maybe another 15 years?

I've done so much work myself on my X5, I know it inside out, it's rock solid and therefore it stays with me. I'd love to see it hit 1,000,000 miles.

When I can replace it with a similarly capable vehicle. 6MT, equivalent towing capacity, similar interior capacity, not meaningfully externally larger.
Unfortunately, I don't think that that will ever exist again. Certainly, today's X5 doesn't fit well in my garage. (I can comfortably park 4 cars diagonally and one in the drive aisle if there aren't any that are too large. The E53 is on the outer edge of what can be diagonally parked.)

2 great points, the X5 may actually increase in value with time?? It may be a long time though, not sure my lifespan is long enough. And I can fit 4 cars in my garage too, with the X5 and another car in one of the bays, a new X5 would not fit, but an X3 might…

Carbob, I recognize that you are a cut above most BMW owners in terms of spending the money to keep it running. And for that I appreciate you.
But when you said $46,807 on maintenance over these twenty years, or 44 cents/mile, THAT IS INSANE. Is driving the X5 every day worth the price of a new 4Runner, which you could drive and it would cost you probably closer to 2 cents/mile to drive? (I actually bought a new Toyota a while back and drove it for 140k miles, and averaged 1.8 cents per mile over the cost of ownership -- most of which was just on tires!) The only logical conclusion is that Carbob hates money. I rest my case.

Eh. Any value increase probably won't cover the cost of ownership. X5s aren't going to spike like, say, my E30 M3. (I paid more for the E53 in 2021 than I paid for the E30 M3 in 2008, to give some sense of the value spike there.)
