Help
I am shopping/buying a vehicle for my beloved wife. We have been the route and have narrowed it down to the new 2007 X5 4.8 with everything and the GL 450 with everything. I want to buy her the most prestigious and blah blah so she has the best of what an SUV has to offer.
What is the consensus? I know this is a BMW forum. |

Does the GL feel like driving a truck? The E70 feels more like a car and therefore more comfortable whether on short or long trips. If you need the room then it is the GL.

I spent the last 2 weeks test driving everything including the Q7, MDX, Range Rover Sport, X5 and several others....and just moments ago purchased the X5.
IMO it was the clear winner, despite the fact that they are hard to find and negotiate . I had to buy from a dealer 600 miles away to get what I wanted, a loaded 3.0 X5. |

what are you looking for. whats best depend on whether it fulfill your need
range rover- best off road car gl - most space, most comfortable cayenne turbo - fastest acceleration, a lot of hp and torque bmw - most tech toys, better handling then most. etc |

Thanks e'one, my wife has indeed narrowed it down to the E70 4.8.
Great choice. I did not want to donate my .02$. Now, how much are y'all getting over the invoice if you have to custom order? My config comes to 66215 invoice and 71895 as MSRP. What would be the strategy? And, does tabacco go with space grey/ monaco blue? Nevada leather or napa? I dont think we want the active vent seats, but the multicontoured seats instead. |
