Replying to: oniac (Apr 14, 2007 10:01 pm) Thanks for the reply...   So what ur trying to say is that u went to get the x5 deal wasn't done...   Then went to lexus drove the GX470 and u liked it.   Then drove GS LS liked the LS as well.   While u were looking for a cayenne u got more confused when the sales person told u abt the carrera...   This is sure getting confusing...   Its ur choice at the end of the day...   My opinion better than going for an old carrera anything of the above...   The Gx looks a bit old , I don't know much abt the LS heard good and bad things abt it in this site reviews abt the LS. But the LS sure looks like a great car and 1 of the best sedans.   SUVS Well i suggest cayenne or the x5 r abt it.   But as i said before its ur choice and what u like..   Gud luck ...Hope u can decide

Correct, I didn't get the x5 bec they wouldn't take my Pilot for the $19k I owe on it. They only wanted $17.5k for it.   So are you saying stick w/ the Cayenne & X5 & forget the 2005 Carrera ?   The GX470 is a great family SUV,no way as sporty as the X5 & Cayenne but one that you can drive everyday without worrying about anything but gas & regular maintenance. I'm not considering it, I'm still on the X5 or Cayenne. Just got sidetracked a bit. Too many cars out there. I'm gonna go to another BMW dealership this week. They have a metallic black that's configured like the Space Gray I am looking at. We'll see, if that still doesn't work then Cayenne is it or will just keep the Honda & replace my 02 Lexus instead. PRetty hard to do bec. my Lexus has been paid off for about 2 yrs now. Replies to this message: quattroporte12 (Apr 15, 2007 2:09 pm) ms09 (Apr 16, 2007 8:31 am)

Replying to: oniac (Apr 15, 2007 1:42 pm) Look at the Audi q7. It has utility of the gx but the driving style of the x5 and cayenne. The cayenne is overpriced imo. The audi is nicer, bigger, handles just as well, and is less expensive. id go with the q7 or x5. the gx is outdated.

The Q7's interior is nice but power's lacking. Even the v8 isn't enough for it's size & it is a gas killer. It's a bit sloppy too, I guess the size attributes to that. It is a good family SUV though like the GX & I agree that the GS is getting old (4th yr). I've always like Audi's styling but it's reliability has always pushed me away from this brand. I test drove/attempted to buy the TT & the A4 but complains about it pushed me away. Replies to this message: quattroporte12 (Apr 15, 2007 8:26 pm)

Replying to: oniac (Apr 15, 2007 6:03 pm) yeah i was worried about reliability too but so far it hasnt been that bad. the power is kinda lacking...i dont know why...it is surprising. i think its why you said because of the extra size and length, but i think that the handling is really great considering its the size of a tahoe and sequoia. the only thing that is remotley close to it is the mercedes gl in that size class. The styling is really my favorite part of the car. If they brought the v12 here that would be a sweet car! too bad it wont be here for a while. mabie you might want to look at an fx45 too...but theyre styling isnt for everyone. i think the old x5 4.8is is a really nice car too, but if you want new that probably isnt an option...

Replying to: oniac (Apr 15, 2007 1:42 pm) Yes i say forget the carrera, but as i said before its what u like and u will choose at the end of the day.   Ya every1 gets confused after seeing too many car out there but u will get 1 sooner ,later..   Have u seen the lx570 it will be out some time at the end of the year i think if u can wait for it but its not every1s choice not as exciting as the germans cars.
#30 of 63 Hi by ms09 Apr 16, 2007 (8:33 am)
Can u guys believe it i was sooo much against the new x5..   And today its 1 of my favo suv including with some others i like
#31 of 63 hi (oniac) by ms09 Apr 17, 2007 (1:55 pm)
i read some articles abt cayenne, here it is, which says...   THE TURBO IS AS SURREAL IS EVER. IT IS SERIOUSLY FAST,A   ALL THE WHILE ACCOMPANIED BY A HARD-EDGED, BENT EIGHT BEAT.   MANY BUYERS WILL PICK THE SLIGHTLY CHEAPER CAYENNE S.   Only the v6 disappoints. Encounter a hill or a cabin-full of persons and baggages,and you'll need to nail the throttle to maintain progress. this entry level is too noisy
