You might be an X5 driver if the thought of driving an Japanese made SUV makes you break out into a cold sweat...

You might be an X5 driver if :

- You thank god and quietly scream "YES!!!!" each time you start the car and all of the warning lights disappear as they should.

- You upgraded your AAA plan from Basic to GOLD.

- You don't use the panoramic moon-roof in fear of breaking it.

- You love driving it regardless of all of the above.

if....you spend more time contemplating mods and maintenance or your vehicle than your house-or anything else for that matter.

If you can't drive your 9 year old, 122k X5 to a client meeting because you keep it immaculate; They will have the preception that it is new and that you make too much money...

You might be an X5 driver if you think those big fat cambered tires on back are posers, then you drive one and find out they stick like sh*t !

Holy crap this is funny ! I found out 3 months after my 06 4.8iS with 55k on it rolled into the parking lot that my boss had been asked on several occasions how much I earned as " he bought that brand new big BMW" .

That is so awesome! You know.... In today's world,
a best case scenario will give you exactly what you paid for. Nothing more.

But my $17k BMW gives me the image that I have a $70k ride. I'll can't think of anything else that will give you more then what you paid for.

You enjoy driving off track as much as on track.
