I recently purchased a 2004 X5 4.4 for my wife , have been very happy with the car. I just drove my friends Cayenne S and am blown away by its performance.....Now i am having buyers remorse. The Porsche feels so much faster , revs faster and feels like a sports car more than SUV. BMW feels much heavier and not as nimble, although on th positive side i like BMW interiors and smooth V8. it just lacks the guts of porsche.
why is there so much difference ? both cars weigh about the same have similar 0-60 and close enough hp/tq
is it just a porsche magic ? I am a owner of 911 Turbo too and really appreciate Porsches in general.
