Saw one of these driving around Southpark Mall in Charlotte last week....heard him open the throttle pulling out of the parking lot and my jaw dropped at the sound of that thing...its a real animal.

yeah, i really do like them a LOT

sat in a new cayenne recently .... i hate to say it by the level of luxury is in a different league than that of our X's

my dad's so in love with his new porsche -- and i have to admit, so am i!! after driving the wheels off it last weekned i'm seriously going into withdrawals!! -- that he and my mom joke that once i grad law school they're going to upgrade me to a cayenne lol ... i'm like ... "but i LOVE my x5!!"

For about the twice the price of our X5's, it better be in another league.
The X5 isn't a luxo barge, and it's not a street racer. It's a perfect mix in between which is why it's successful. Soccer moms love it because it's a BMW. Enthusiasts love it because it's a BMW (face it, the name does mean a lot, it means the car was engineered for a specific audience) and everyone else loves it because it's a mix in between (again).

The only thing I can think of that would make the X5 better is more capable off roading abilities. Of course though, that would remove the on road powers... so just ignore me

Cool promo vid...
I, ah, clicked off some of the usual options
and hit the Total button: $150K+.

I don't really care how fine it is; I need a 10 mpg
150G mall cruiser like I need...

Porsche is looking for those 200 noveau-riche customers
out there in car/suv land.

Fifth gear had the x5 4.6 vs the regular cayenne and in that show the x5 drifted wonderfully...

and honestly, $125K for a car that can do ALL THAT is really not bad at all.
