Chris I would seriously consider the new Mercedes GL if your willing to sacrifice a little sportiness. My parents just got a new 550 and it is nothing short of a fantastic car,room for 7 passengers, fit and finish is excellent and it can still offer a sporty drive

Sorry but the GL is rubbish IMO. I've had the ML, driven the GL multiple times. There's no sportiness bar the AMG's. The new ones are a bit more refined, but still handle like a boat. That it just my opinion.
In the SUV's the Range Rover is king I have to admit.
If you're looking at saloon cars, I urge you to go drive an S6 and then decide. Try the 650 Gran Coupe too. Two very different cars but both are fabulous fun.

Good suggestions guys.... The Q5 is disqualified because the luggage space is not that big and it's pretty boring to drive. It might be my wife's next car, but not mine. The E63 would be a good call, but I think MB makes ugly wagons. If BMW had an M5 estate, I'd strongly consider it. The obvious, perfect choice, but never coming here, is the RS6 Avant.
I guess the safest choice is to wait until July/August to see if there is an RS4 announcement, and if not, then decide between S6 and Cayenne GTS.
Please keep the comments coming.
