That was one of the many reasons I sold my X5M.....the harsh ride was another. Again, none of my other M cars have ever been so harsh. Neither of these will be issues in the M50i. You also will never get the full power and handling in the X5M versus a normal M car just due to the fact it's a SUV and has a way higher center of gravity. The X5M just didn't really do it for me....I wish I had driven one for a few days before I bought it originally.
I find the seats in the x5m fantastic actually. I’m 6’3” 225 in good shape and they fit me like a glove. As far as performance suvs go this is one of the best. It is s real M but in suv guise. It’s not a car and never will be. Everyone should know That before buying it no? You don’t buy this expecting it to feel line an m5 do you? I expected an m5 feel but in an suv. And that’s exactly what I got. Perfect.
