6. BMW X5 s35i

IF you want everything the minivan offered and great performance too, put down the 50 grand for this bugger. It’s BMW’s first entry in the crossover class, but it’s been around for a while, long enough to get the bugs out. This crossover works as a replacement for a minivan because the six-person seating is reportedly a little tight. Obviously, hauling kids won’t be a problem since they’re not full-size adults. They will fit it like a glove.

The stuff a manly guy wants is the luxurious interior and robust pop in the power and acceleration of the X5. It never strays from the true identity of BMW. The crossover behaves like a high-powered sedan with incredible handling. It’s a magnet for adventurous men. The luxurious interior includes a sunroof and first row LCD screens so the little people can watch TV rather bother the parents. Like any BMW, its cachet is its styling and the brand recognition.
