x5M Vs. Cayenne Turbo

So i Have E70 4.8 and i am looking into both of these cars. A X5M or a Cayenne Turbo. What are your thoughts?Both new and about the same price depending on options?

Hi there,

http://www.xoutpost.com/bmw-sav-foru...nne-turbo.html

Check the above thread started a while ago - my main concerns with BMW are still poor quality & associated problems that should not be present in one of their top cars IMO.

Cheers,

A new Cayenne turbo will set you back an extra 35-40K depending on options.

If price doesn't matter, mind as well give the Cayenne a try as you've already had the X5. I realize, in comparison to the 4.8, the M is much faster and all but its still a lot of the same car. I think the Turbo is fantastic looking and would have jumped at it if I could have afforded it. Love that the brand is a little more exclusive and you just don't see as many on the streets.

I drove the cross shopped the Cayenne S and thought the X5 50i was all around nicer.

The Turbo is more appropriate for a "cougar", see Housewives of Atlanta, whereas the M is more a man's car.

I love that answer.

Time to start chasing Cayenne Turbos!
