When taking the tax cut into account, we got an incredible deal. Now, without a doubt, the X5 is the best car I've ever had -- bar none!!
HAVING SAID THAT....
I love the PCar Boxster. I also love the C6 'Vette. My wife loves the MLB SLK. And, oh yeah, I still think very highly of the C-Class. (I LOVED that car. Not the performance of a 3-Series, but the luxury and quality are unmatched, in my opinion.)
So... I know many of you have second and third "daily drivers." My question is, when it's time to trade in or give up your X5 (for whatever reason), will you buy another X5, even if you don't "need" it? Or, what else would/will you consider buying?
Also... if you did sell the X and bought something else... will you still hang around here on X5World?

I would have to wait for the new 2007 X5 and the new Cayenne to come out to make a decision.
A friend of mine is getting the Range Rover after doing over 60K miles in a 4.6iS and love every mile but wants a change.
I am thinking of getting the M5. My dealer just got a fanastic demo M5 and will take that baby for a very long spin. I'll try to get some pics in.
If all goes well, I'll probably get the M5 as a second car. The X5 is gonna stay in the family for some time. I'd rather ditch my wife's MB A Class, its a cute fast car but a bit too small.
Concerning staying on X5world - YES!
