Next SUV?

[PUZZ]

With seemingly more negative vs positive comments surrounding the new f15, what are people thinking for the next vehicle assuming you'll be in the market in the next year or two? I'm thinking Cayenne, Tourareg, RR Sport, or perhaps a CPO X5M. I really wished I had the same reaction to the new X5 as I did when the e70 was unveiled,but I really don't like it. Front looks OK, back not great, can't stand the side view.

F15 for me.

sorry guys, i really really feel like dynosaur here - i am still stuck on the looks and performance of the E53... i am becoming an old, crusty man!!!!!!!!!!

I decided I don't want a bigger X5 looks are subjective but no arguing the size gets bigger every generation. Any way I went out a picked up an X5M to go with our X5d

CPO X5M sounds tasty especially with the F15 design in mind.

Gonna stay with my 2008 E70 until the wheels fall off...

Nothing out there that I like better, and the X5M will be WAY TOO expensive to maintain long term, IMHO.

I still love my E70, which I will keep until the extended warranty runs out. I admit I liked the more svelte looks of the E53 better, but with two big Dogs, I'm enjoying the bigger interior.
To paraphrase Gooldilocks, the F15 is too big, the E53 too small, and the E70 is just right. So, I`m keeping mine until the extended warranty runs out at 100k. Who knows, by that time the mid term refresh will be out and new X3 will be as big as the E53???

BTW, unless something has changed, I don't think M series cars are eligible for the CPO program. But, I`d imagine there will be some bood X5M yease returns with low mileage showing up soon as people trade for F15`s.

The only thing don't like about the F15 is that stupid looking tablet on the dash.
They make it look like the E70 than fine. Not crazy about the the stop start engine
but thats about all manufacturers now. If the new diesel does not constantly
break down like the current. Have all the bugs out causing expensive repairs
would go with another one. Otherwise the design look just like a e70 with a little
different taillight and headlight. Not stuck on a brand, would look at Audi or Porsche too.

I may end up doing the same thing! I only put 10k miles/yr on the car (currently 52,000 miles). Can't justify dumping it yet.

I'm in the same boat--only 46K miles (In-service date Aug '08) and still have CPO and Extended Maintenance until 8/14 and 2 more years on Wheel Protection. That being said, I've noticed some '10 X5Ms out there with good miles around the $50K price--I think in a few years I'd think about getting a 3 year old X5M.
