Here is an interesting one - fully loaded x5 m50 vs x5m comp
https://tflcar.com/2020/08/2020-bmw-...i-x5-m-review/

I go through that very debate in my head often since my lease expires in several months
More points in my book are :
M50 has a trailer hitch - big one for me
It does know how to relax in comfort mode and has more relaxed seats
Handling is decent especially with DHP - But the only way to get roll stabilization in dhp is to get active steering - Which i dislike

X5m on the other hand has great handling and driving dynamics with all the right packages.
Concerns-
Lack of trailer hitch
Under front bumper oil cooler that needs to be covered for pebble protection
Does not know how to relax - potential complaints from family on long rides
