Yup, yup. From the start of the X7, I've been asking for 7-series-like 2nd row legroom and luxury in an SAV. Sacrificing the 3rd row if needed. Likely happening in the upcoming X8, although reports that it will be the most expensive BMW ever made will also mean that I likely won't be able to afford it.
If they do that and even up the power to mid 700hp, they are going after the Cullinan and will be coming in in the $180k range but being more sport oriented. I tap out at the $140k range for a car these days. I am a auto snob but my value system doesn’t value any vehicle beyond the $150k range for my lifestyle. At that point it becomes a wealth bragging contest and less about the actual vehicle. IMHO. I looked seriously at the Bentaga before I purchased my X7 and just didn’t see the additional expense and wasn’t impressed at all with their tech or UI, especially in a mid size suv.
