Since we’re on the subject of SUV’s – let’s show some love to Al’s BMW X5. Al is no freshman to the car scene and for those of you who know Al other than being a moderator on beyond.ca, he’s one of the OG’s in the 403. Al has come from a nice stable of cars in the past. From an Integra Type-R to a Mazdaspeed Protege, he moved on to the Euro scene with two Mercedes SL55’s with one of them being an AMG. As if that wasn’t enough power, Al turned to Japan’s “Godzilla”, the Nissan GT-R R32.

Now I guess with age comes sophistication and some practicality. What more can you ask for with the X5. Simplicity works best here and as you can see, it’s still aggressive as ever.
