Was at Home Depot today and parked next to a new X5. Wow! I guess I hadn't realized just how much smaller the X1 is than the X5! It was a HUGE difference. Made me really appreciate just how much more car like the X1 is and how that honkin' X5 must handle like a boat (never driven one and I would guess people don't buy them for their handling). I always admired how WIDE X5 rear wheels/tires are though. Love the look.
To me the E84 X1 looks just as modern on the outside as the brand new F15 X5. BMW really did a wonderful job with the X1...couldn't be happier with it!
