I’ve emailed my local Porsche dealer tonight about a Cayenne. Costs more but hopefully they can deliver within a reasonable timeframe.
Or it is following the old saying - "Good things come to those who wait."

You are out a bit longer since you are not in the US but I think you will find quite a few folks who have seen a number of delays. We have members who were currently scheduled for the later part of December who have been put off a few times and are still waiting.

You, or course, need to make the decision as to what would be the best way to proceed. I have to think there was a reason you chose the X5 to begin with, while the waiting, delays and associated aggravation have eroded your view of BMW, I would think the X5 in regards to the competition would still hold the same place for you. I just hope you don't make a decision now that you may regret in the future.
