Considering the X5M.......opinions welcome

I've been so pleased with the wife's M3 that I'm considering the X5M as a new DD. Will be putting snows on for the winter. Thinking ahead........who makes the best sounding exhaust
Any input is welcome but that from owners will be especially appreciated

We have one coming in April.

Took it on a test drive last month and was very impressed, a car that big shouldn't be that quick. Makes an amazing sound as well as you can probably imagine.

I'll probably be in the minority here, but I'd take an X5M over the Cayenne TT. It's so much faster than it ought to be and sounds wicked!

A friend sold his G55 and bought an X5M no contest!
