In 1999, BMW entered the mid-size SUV game with a luxury crossover offering that they christened the X5. Now in its fourth generation, the M Division got involved somewhere down the line, resulting in the X5 M. What we've got here is a fine example of a 2021 BMW X5 M Competition with 17,000 miles on the clock. Would you like a blindingly fast luxury crossover that can carry five adults plus enough luggage for a transcontinental trip? Step right this way.

Exterior and Interior

At first glance, you may notice that this Marina Bay Blue Metallic 2021 BMW X5 M Competition seems to sit a little differently. That's because the current owner has treated it to a set of H&R lowering springs, giving it a hunkered-down stance. If this isn't your piece of cake, the factory springs are also included in the sale. It's also reported that a set of winter tires will be given away with the vehicle. AN XPEL Paint Protection Film is applied over the front bumper, hood, rocker panels, and mirrors. At the rear, the X5 M badge has been blacked out, but the quad tailpipes are enough of a telltale sign for those who recognize high-performance Bimmers. The full leather upholstery on this 2021 BMW X5 M Competition makes the Silverstone interior look sporty and welcoming at the same time. You've also got the Mobility Kit and Executive Package boxes ticked. The luckiest is the driver, who sits facing a digital instrument cluster and gripping an M Sport steering wheel with multifunction controls and paddle shifters. BMW's sophisticated iDrive infotainment system offers ample smartphone connectivity and media options, played through a sublime Bowers & Wilkins Diamond surround sound system. Four-zone climate control ensures that everyone is kept comfortable and heated seats are on hand to combat cold weather. An ample trunk lies behind the seats, ready to swallow plenty of luggage.

Engine

Equipped with the Competition as the name suggests, this 2021 BMW X5 M Competition enjoys BMW's current generation 4.4L twin-turbocharged V8 sending drive to all four wheels via a smooth ZF 8HP eight-speed automatic transmission and xDrive all-wheel-drive system. Putting out 617hp and 553lb-ft, zero to sixty is a 3.7-second affair, with the enforced speed limiter kicking in at 155mph.
