Question is, why not the X5?:confused: If any vehicle in BMW's lineup, the X5 would need the torque of the twin-turbo (300 lb/ft) vs. 3.0si (225 lb/ft). Granted 260hp vs. 300 hp is also significant difference, but the torque is what will get this X5 going!

totally agree

Autoweek wrote that the X5 will get the 335i engine, but didn't say when. Anyone know if turbo engines in general have durability issues?
