its not that much more money when you compare a fully loaded 4.4 to a 4.8. Most of the extra money for the 4.8 is because all those options are standard and are not on the 4.4. If its your only car i would definately go with the 4.8 main reason for me is the brakes. Alot better than my 4.4 I went with the 4.4 cecause i already have a few sports cars and didnt really think i needed the 4.8 but next time around i may go for it.

I'm in the same boat...pretty loaded up 4.4 with 18K...I want to sell it at 24K (miles). The 0 to 60 and HP are close, but I have never gotten to light up a 4.8...I can't recall what the 4.4 torque is but I know the 4.8 pulls 369--a nice bump. My quandry is it appears the 2007 X5 will have 360hp vs 355hp for the current 4.8....what happens to the 2006 4.8 value if power and performance is eclipsed by the "base" V-8 2007 X5?

The difference is the new one will have Bangle's NASTY design
which makes the older 4.8's collectors items.

I haven't heard anyone say that the 4.8 should not be purchased or that it was "overkill". As was said, most of the cost on the 4.8 is because of the standard would be 4.4 options....not so much the extra 0.4 litre of motor and 40hp. I know when I bought my X5 4.4 the total cost was about 4,000.00 shy of a 4.8 base.

x5 4.4
I am leasing a 2005 4.4 for $575.
It has a ton of power stops great and cost much less than the 2005. Options included preiumpackage, cold weather and heated rear seat. Other than 20 inch rims, what options are on the 4.8? I think the 18 inch rims provide a softer ride. |
