wow.....love the Range Rover....IMO the X5 looks blah next to it, even more so with the 16s.

Taste is taste. I think the rover looks like a box with civic headlights and taillights.

However i must ask... If the BMW has 18's and the rover has 19's...... Where are the 16's?

Depth perception. Some have it, some don't.

No offense man....but c'mon....I owned your same X5 and there is zero chance it looks as good as the Rover.

Better bang for your buck, maybe better handling, more reliable.....sure....but let's not get carried away....it's just an X5.

C'mon no offense man, but you have an inability to judge something without comparison. Nowhere did I say X5 when I said

I just sold an IS300, still thought

the rover looks like a box with civic headlights and taillights.
Before that I owned a Mercedes CLK and thought

the rover looks like a box with civic headlights and taillights.
So c'mon man no offense but you don't seem to want to respect my observation on it, only to make yours the only opinion. Silliness. You like the rover, I don't....... that is that. Don't accuse me of being bias, nor fault me for liking something you don't. I also said here on CL 5 years ago

The Porsche Cayenne is boring looking inside. Too bland
I won't even bother to put a pic of me beside one if I ever park next to one. I wouldn't wanna be biased for something I said 5 years ago.

I like the ML better than all of them. I need to run out and buy it before I am reverse biased!

Congrats on getting the X5 Looks good! Be sure to do all the servicing on time though, my relatives old X5 got VERY expensive from constant repairs, hopefully you don't have that issue.

That Range Rover is nice too, only problem is Range Rover reliability is so low! Everyone i know that has HAD one (everyone sold 'em) had constant problems. One of them had his Range in the shop so many days he sold it when he realized it was spending more time at the shop than in his garage.
