Is the Blazer SS a lower cost faster SUV?

Highlights:
Corvette-based 6.0 Liter LS2 small block V8
Cold Air Induction Package
SS-specific ZQ8 Sport Suspension
20-inch polished-aluminum wheels (1)
Heavy-duty front disc brakes with Corvette-spec front brake pads and ABS
Available full-time all-wheel drive with a TORSEN® center differential

It would seem that the Blazer SS would out run almost any X5.

What do think?
