Actually, I think that the interior is quite understated on the E70. I like it a lot. If you like a hundred buttons, go with the MDX, but you will probably never use them. The X5 is uncluttered and...

Many of the sensors that are built into seats actually detect the occupant's weight (hope no-one's sensitive about it).

It's just that all together, it's worth about a grand, and they weren't willing to split it or do any buy-back.
I know that I negotiated a good deal, but I would...
