Great review, X5 left them all in the dust 😀

I would love if they would do a comparison with Cayenne, I think Cayenne us the only real challenger to the X5.
True that....Cayenne & X5 are best choices for enthusiast. C&D just released Q7 / Cayenne comparison (probably tied in with the X5 / GLE comparison). Performance specs showed the Cayenne almost identical to the X5. The X5 was slightly quicker...with same power ratings & higher weight. This again shows the B58 to be great engine since it's driving greater weight with higher fuel efficiency. The Cayenne will have advantage in handling and (IMO) styling, but at SIGNIFICANT price premium. I debated these two for months...bought the X5 & really pleased with my decision. As is my IRA.
Hopefully we'll see a combined X5/GLE/Q7/Cayenne comparison.
Neither will be as trouble free as a Lexus, but I couldn't see myself driving the automotive equivalent of a large-mouthed bass.
