The example you are looking at at 75 k is a used car - different market. Used x5 will still be less expensive
Handling is similar when equally equipped. X5 needs to have m sport pack with m brakes and m adaptive suspension. More room in x5 as well
If you are looking at porsche money to -spend. Get an x5 m50
Thanks for that. In fact I agree with all of that. The comparison is a used 2019 Cayenne vs new X5. There is a price delta but I will also say I prefer the seating position and suspension of the Porsche. But, both are leaders in the clubhouse.

BTW, local dealer has several X5 50i available. I might have to see if they are really negotiating on these. Any reason I should not want one? And an MSRP of $80K I wonder if they are under specced with regard to desirable features.
