Is the X5 right for me?

Less than 30K might be too optimistic for what you're looking for but as jsears says its worth it to pay a little more to get the RIGHT car.

BTW ... Jeff, I don't think you overpaid.

Thanks! There is just a lot of input of what people thing the "right" price for a car is; and personal opinion differs. I was willing to pay more for the RIGHT car for me.

The 4.8is does beg to be opened up. I find this car to be a lot funner to drive than my old 530i with a Dinan package.

Plus it is fun to see the other drivers face when a 5000+ pound SAV beats them off the line at a stop light.
