Just got back from the dealers today -- test drove the GLK350, Q5 and X3, all within 3-4 hrs.
I remember getting an X3 as a loaner 5-6 years ago when I took my M3 in for service. Today, when I got into the new X3, I was like "WOW!!! What an improvement from the old X3!!!" The new interior is a vast improvement from the tacky, plasticky feel that I remember.
What really impressed me most was the drive, it was smooth as butter!
We're in the market for a 4WD SUV cuz we're sick of spinning our wheels in the snow in Boston (all our cars are RWD). At this point, we've ruled out the GLK350, ALMOST ruled out the Q5, the question now comes down to this: Is the 35i worth the extra $3,400 or should we just get the 28i...
Hmmmmm.........
