just something to poke fun at you about (you can take it).
More cargo space yes. I bet I have more passenger space.

X5 60->0 in 170 feet. Better than a 330.

Acceleration 0->60 in 8.1 s. Not bad, not great.

(I have broad shoulders. Bring it on!)
I can look up specs, but I know that the Saab has more HP and a lot mroe torque, weighs a lot less and has a lower center of gravity. It also has bigger brakes, MUCH more cargo room and, I believe, more passenger space. And it gets better gas mileage to boot.

Oh yeah, and what pDz said. I paid about half.
i didn't want to steal your thunder, so i waited because i knew you'd reply in kind with the data.
