I'm very aware that there are a couple of better performing (than the X5) SUV's - one from Mercedes (ML63) and two from Porsche (both Cayenne Turbos). The Cayenne S is an overpriced Touareg - sorry.
I have driven the GTS many times - IMO (IN MY OPINION), the X5 4.8 (E70 variation) with sport pack and 20's handles nearly as well as the GTS at 9/10ths pace. Apparently, so did the race car driver/commentator on the Youtube video/link I posted above.
I might suggest that YOU (Cayenne FB) drive them both, then offer some feedback.
Save for the ML63, the other variations of the ML's won't hang on a road course with the X5 variant I mentioned above.
BTW, what Audi SUV do you think is better, faster, more full-featured, will hold resale comparatively, or is as good looking OR fun as the X5? Surely, you're not comparing the Q-tugboat

You are really funny, at the end all your arrows point toward the X5. You must be kidding me on this. ML doesnt compare to X5? you kidding me, and FYI i dont have to test drive them. No need to say more on that. But do you realized that your brain is wired to think BMW X5 is better than other SUVs in the same league. CayenneS > ML > E70 = Q7 > RX > MDX thats the rank. Think out of the BOX. Even i check xoutpost.com more than 20 times a day my brain works independently. I am a bmw enthusiat but when it comes to comparing cars, i am very fair and unbiased. NOT LIKE YOU.
