The M Sport Brakes does bring back a slight bit of brake dust on the wheels but nothing remotely like in years past when it was common to see a BMW with black wheels beckoning to be cleaned.
When I had my 2004 BMW brake dust drove me nuts. Options selected: M Sport, Executive Tier, 21" M Y-Spoke bi-color wheels style 741M performance run-flats, Coffee Extended Merino Leather, Anthracite-Brown Poplar Matte Finish wood trim, Dynamic Handling Package, Luxury Seating Package, Acoustic Glass, Glass Controls, Heated front seats, armrests, and steering wheel, Leather Dashboard, and BMW rubber floor mats. I custom built my 2019 X5 with most options selected less the off-road air bags. The audio, Harman Karden base system is just fine for me. The HVAC system is super and reaches your desired climate very quickly. I don't feel that it is gimmicky as many reviews seem to categorize it. The gesture control requires time to learn and appreciate it. The iDrive is so much better than years past and I started with the original with my 2004 BMW 745Li. It is a beefy grip and again extremely comfortable. The steering wheel is familiar yet so different. The car drives so much smoother, quieter, and more refined that if I was blind folded and put behind the wheel and allowed to drive this car, I would be adamant that I was not driving an X5 or a BMW. This car is so much more than a small incremental change from the previous model. The hot & cold cup holders, only for the front, are yet another added feature to this car that really makes this a new experience for me despite coming from a 3-year lease of what I thought would be a lateral move. The massage levels don't provide enough strength to really get into the stress points in the neck, shoulders and low back but it is relaxing. The seats support every segment of my body and this new version adds more to the ventilation feature as well as many massage options.
This car provided me such joy at the start and the end of my work day despite having to deal with such hellacious traffic on the 405 and 101 every single day. Both versions of the X5 provided great access. I am 6'2" and don't like to fold myself in half to get in and out of a vehicle. Great access both in and out of the vehicle. Not only more power than my previous X5 but it is also very quiet in the cabin and very comfortable. It provides the all familiar power but with so much more in this version.
Previous was the 2016 and now is the incredible 2019 X5 xDrive50i.
