Not bad, looks-wise, but two things would be a deal-breaker for me.....the electronic shifter and the I-Drive ****. I've had experience with both in BMW reviews/test-drives, and strongly dislike both.
And what's with the bluish slate/marble dash trim...or is that a gray swirl-wood pattern? Very unusual, to say the least.

Perhaps the electronics behind it will make things more simple
I like it... The baby X5 is starting to really grow on me... The only thing I really don't like is the dash covering... Not a fan of the swirly dark wood. Maybe in a different finish.
Looks dark and old already. Those exposed cupholders are an eyesore. What boring door panels.
Sigh....
Agree. Nothing very impressive or remarkable here. All of the pieces and shapes are sourced right out of the low end BMW parts bin. And, as usual, BMW's signature "wood" trim that comes from "trees" that grow on Saturn's outer ring.
