As you can see from this test, the 2010 RR Sport SC completely destroys the E70 BMW X5 4.8i (160 hp advantage, 5.1 sec to 60mph vs. the 4.8i's 6.4 sec to 60 mph according to BMW). But not to despair: the X5///M in turn completely destroys the 2010 RR Sport SC. 0-60 in 4.0 seconds flat and 1/4 mile in 12.5 seconds. Not to mention it totally destroys the RR SC in the skid-pad. So the latest Bimmer is still on top in the SUV race!
Yeah I don't think you can really compare the current 4.8 to the RR Sport SC. First, there's about a $20K price difference and with the (hopefully) new TTV8 coming that will close the gap on performance--X5 will be a much better value.
