My dad picked the X3 because he got a great deal from a dealer and thought it was "more car for the money" than a 325i

I decided on the X5 after my experience owning a 1997 BMW 540 with a 6 speed. Then I replaced that with a 2001 BMW 540 and then I needed a SUV to tow a boat.

There was no thinking about what SUV...The X5 was in my future. My next SUV will be the new X5 when mine wears out.

A Jeep Cherokee is also built in the US, is that a fair comparison?? I think not

Agreed - Chryslers are assembled in Canada. They're not Canadian cars, though.

the continental GT's are actually not really holding their value. You can easily find one in the mid 120's. It's will be poifect for trips to supermarket to pick up groceries and grey poupon...
