FX45 AWD or X5 4.8IS
 

Loving my 2007 FX35 AWD that I picked up a few months back. So far she is been amazing moshallah knock on wood. Been contemplating between FX45 AWD or a 2006 BMW X5 4.8IS. Which one should I chose, and why? I test drove the X5 4.8IS today for the first time. The engine/exhaust noise is insane, and the handling is superb. I haven't test driven the FX45 AWD. I'd assume it drives the same as my FX35, but probably little faster in the straight line. Any input is given is appreciated. I saw a few videos on Youtube and somehow despite have lower HP, the FX45 is faster in straight line. But the X5 4.8IS looks good. With the price of a 2006 X5 4.8IS at 31K miles, I can pick up a 2008 FX45 AWD with 15K miles.
