New X5 too much $
Newer e70 with extended warranty, leaning towards this possibly, since it is hard to get an exclusionary extended warranty for my 8 year old X5.

NX200 too small
MDX ugly
Used MDX rather get a newer RDX
X3 XLine lease pmt is high, no decent loaded used ones around with 19" wheels
X1 too small
GLK too small
F30 Wagon - too low lol
A4/Allroad Wagon Audi reliability
Land/Range Rovers unreliable and too much to lease a new one

Boy once you are used to an e70 it's pretty hard to get out. LOL

Seeing all the issues an e70 can have here, and other forums, it is definitely high maintenance.

I can diy some stuff but don't have time due to work and family.

I saw a used car classified on CL boasting the E70 owner had $21k in repair reciepts!
Yes ,X BMWs are expensive to own and maintain ,I guess.

They will soon, especially 2014 models. And at very low mileage as they are mostly residing at the dealerships

I am about ready to sell my '09 35D if you are interested.
