Yeah, I believe that was a Roundel magazine comparison, so if there was any bias, it was to BMW's favor. Without the DPC, the X5 simply was not as good as an MDX in terms of cornering and handling. If I recall correctly, in the same issue they compared the X3 with the RDX, and gave the X3 a thumbs up over the RDX.
