If the X didn't exist, what SAV would you buy instead and why?

[J.Belknap]

Something big and turbo and diesel.

ML 63 or a Cayenne Turbo S ( if it had to be a suv/sav choice) there are plenty of cars i would have picked if the x5 m didnt roll off the line , thank you bmw gods thank you.

I woulndt consider a Touareg a sports luxury suv haha.

Only real choices would be

1. Porsche
2. Mercedes
3. Range Rover
4. Audi
5. Maybe Acura.

Nothing else really...

RR have bad reputation for breaking up, FX is ugly and drives like crap, Cayenne connot be fixed at independent mechanics in my country (dealer costs a lot), ML is ugly, and all the american SUV are a bunch of plastic driven by a jurasic-technology engine and fast only pulling straight lines (no pleasure), Audi have bad reliability and expensive maintenance (at least where i live)...


Thanks god they created the X!!

You couldn't pay me to drive one of those things. BMW has done some horrible designs since Bangle took over, but the X6 is by far the worst.

And to top it off, it isn't even practical. I think the E70 X5s are not very good looking either, but at least they have some semblence of practicality.

That is true, but as I found out recently, the E70 has less cargo space than a Ford Focus Wagon. So the practicality is a "semblance," relative to many other vehicles.
