looks lower. that could be a plus.

seats seven. dunno about that part. sounds HEAVIER.
Don't need a fake SUV, but if I were going to buy one, I'd buy the FX45, 'cause it's so goofy looking.

The X5 has no appeal for me--never has. The 4.6is (which is the only X5 I've ever really driven in anger) is fast, but it's big, top-heavy, and handles like shit compared to a well-engineered, similarly heavy and spacious car.

I honestly cannot see the point.
