guys sino may idea kung sino mas okay?
thanks
imho the X5.
much more well-made. better fuel consumption (like oldblue said), although in your price bracket i don't think this is necessarily an issue. better performance and driving dynamics (especially since you're coming from a Z4).
only issue is that the X5 is an older model and might be replaced soon.
thanks guys
sabi nga daw papalitan na yung X5 :D
pangit ba talaga hummer? hehehehehe
The new X5 might debut in 2 year's time. It is quite old already though recent updates (such as standard HID system, clear tail lamps, new rims) still makes it very desireable.
Though it also depends on what X5 variant you are looking at... the X5 4.6i just looks stunning with 20" rims, aero package & quad exhaust. To note also that BMW Phil is offering the X5 3.0d with a good looking OEM aero package (either that or a set of golf clubs or cheaper financing).
As for the H2, well... dealer support for that is really lacking here in the Philippines. Though for our streets, the H3 seems to be more suited.
OT: saw you the other day in Ortigas Center (J. Vargas). wafu ng Z4! :drool:
i'd wait for the newer X5.. parang matagal tagal nang hindi na facelift kasi..might be coming anytime soon.. Why not the XC90? ok rin yun diba?
I'd pick the X5. The downside is malapit na i-phase out.
The H2 is a better bling project though.
fafa schnitz... just wait for the new x5 na lang..Originally Posted by schnitzerz4

H2's absurd size & consumption makes it impractical for manila daily driving. Pero for a high profile run, yes by all means. It's sheer presence alone bespeak of it's own universe! It really depends on where you're coming from and going to. X5 for a simple dude like me- dependable on all terrain unlike an armour-clad H2 which has much body roll during brisk turns. my 1c ho.
H2? Isn't it basically a Tahoe/Escalade?
Which would mean that:
a. It can probably be serviced by Chevy/GM here, except for some engine bits.
b. It's all style and no substance.
X5 para sa akin, lowered and on wire wheels...![]()
Ang pagbalik ng comeback...
yeah, basically. i'm no H2 hater, but the X5 does beat it in every dimension except for towing capacity and poseur factor ;)Originally Posted by niky
id wait for the new x5.
h2's ride...grabe..i hate it.ang tagtag.but then its an suv...but being marketed as such...dapat mejo comy naman...grabe tagtag talaga nung sumakay ako sa stock.
Matagtag ba? Now, considering it's based on the Tahoe/Escalade, and the Escalade rides okay, that's weird. But considering the weight and the strength of the dampers you need to carry it... probably not.
Oh yeah, yung X5 para sa akin? Diesel. Best of both worlds.
Ang pagbalik ng comeback...

or was i expecting too much?it feels more like our f150 lariat 4x4 rather than our exped na 4x2 which is more of comfort...
