I absolutely love the Urus. Never driven it, seen it in the flesh only once, but I would buy it in a heartbeat if I had money to blow. I'll take the one in black.

Well since both are stupid expensive, no reason not to pick the one you’d really want.

Not just the $80-$100k upfront, I’d imagine the cost of ownership is frighteningly expensive. Can’t imagine what the Lamborghini service techs hourly stated rate is. Insurance, too.
Definitely agree, but keep in mind that someone dropping 300k on a car (most likely cash payment) is probably not going to be too concerned with a 1-2k oil change lol.

X5M is a different story though since it's more for the middle class.

so far my Urus cost of ownership has been minimal and insurance isn't really much different than our old X5M. if I lived in a town with a lambo dealer my maintenance would be free, but I just take it to the audi dealership and they have everything they need there to work on it, and at reasonable rates.

Then there is those that can buy either in cash and is buying the right SUV that matches their personal style and needs.

The assumption of some of the newbies is everyone buys the maximum vehicle their credit score allows.. Not everyone feels a need to flex their wallet publicly in what they drive.

The prerace chatter between Matt and Yianni is always appreciated

Nice showing by the X5M.

With regards to the cost comparison, it would be a more appropriate debate if it was between the RSQ8 and the Urus since both are pretty much the same except for the price.

Nah.. . They are essentially the same with different badging.
This comparo makes sense.

That's the thing. They're essentially the same thing with different badging but one's 80K+ less.

But of course, that vid is of an X5M so it makes sense. LOL

Only seen one, they are like a Honda Civic here in AZ around Scottsdale mostly but still. LOL I've yet to see another X5MC on the road... Seems like G wagon and Urus are the two for status here.

We considered the Lambo when shopping around and visited a dealer. It's pretty cool, but it was a no-go because of having too much VAG drivetrain. It's a bad bitch for sure, but without a Lambo motor, it wasn't worth it for weirdo brand whore like me.

My gal had wanted an X5 for a while and we finally got one this week. Not disappointed one bit. I was persuasive enough and talked her in getting an M with the comp package. I think its cooler than the more expensive Urus because its all BMW.

i like the urus exterior, but not big fan of the interior, the audi like middle screen, this airplane like shift gear, and displays ... I guess it's not for me.
