2011 E70 4.8

I am currently looking at 2011 4.8 xdrive with M package/adaptive drive with 80K miles and a same year/trim x5 without Mpackage/adaptive drive but with only 60K miles on it. The one with low miles is $2k more. Other specs are similiar.

I havent driven X5 with adaptive drive before and am leaning towards it but before I jump in , would love to get some input from you guys.

thank you in anticipation

Once you drive one with AD, you won't want to drive one without, just be warned...

The 4.8 is awesome, but I'm biased.

the truck is a freak of engineering. No 5000lb truck should handle the way it does with adaptive.

I'll second the comments above. I have a 4.8 with sport package and AD. Drives amazingly well for a car of that size/weight.
