Q7 or X5 ???

LENELSA · 10-04-2007, 01:21 PM

The lease on my 2004 range rover is up soon and I'm looking to go either Audi Q7 or BMW X5....any thoughts ??

BTW (its for the wifey) I drive the 335i sedan : )

supremepower · 10-04-2007, 01:24 PM

I am gonna say Q7 S-line. Cheaper, better looking, new X5 is nice however very similar to the previous model.

Why for?

Q7

Seltho · 10-04-2007, 01:48 PM

I would go for the x5. I think it`s look better and it`s a fact that it drives better.

Have you driven both? X5 (previous gen) was pretty damn stiff IIRC

BMW F22 · 10-04-2007, 02:15 PM

I'd go with the X5 as well. The new design looks really good- bold and sporty.

jetblk328i · 10-04-2007, 02:22 PM

i would go with the Q7 its a really nice car, cheaper, the Audi design is very good, quite bold, and its for your wife, i dont think you need that much of a driver's car with the handling and such, plus teh Q7 will be VERY comfortable, and audi quality materials just seal teh deal for me, plus theres quattro!

hks786 · 10-04-2007, 05:07 PM

Q7...the X5 is nice, but still similar to the old X5. The Q7 is completely new. I'd go for S-line, it looks amazing

wait. i must have read wrong. audi quality materials?! please tell me, you are not talking about the interior. a fucking honda civic has a better interior durability/quality balance vs any audi.

I think all your credibility goes down the drain when you say that

Let people judge for themselves:

X5...

If you sat in a Q7 you will know what he is talking about, the interior is rubbish, plastic every where, thats why its cheaper.

The S5 and some other models are an exception

remmib · 10-05-2007, 07:47 AM

X5 if I had to pick one, luckily dont since I dont like SUVs.

Hawkeye · 10-05-2007, 10:50 AM

Civics have nice interiors so that wasn't TOO bad of a comment. I personally like Infinity FX (or Q if you need a big one) They are close to BMW quality for a lot less money. I prefer them over Audi as well.

No I have to admit that I haven`t drove any of them but all motor journalist agree that X5 is better. (At least what I have read) I read in one magasin that the Q7 felt like an tourist bus compared to the X5. It`s just to heavy.
