'14 X5's competitor '14 RRS revealed

In my book, these two are competitors.

The new RRS looks too Evoque-ish to me, but I love some of the interior features and it seems to scream luxury. I'd be interested to see how it rides and if...

Disappointed so far, but I'm very skeptical of these leaked images. I have been debating between a RR and X5, and did not like the new RR's look (2013). It seems the new X5 is going in the same...

I did a lot of test driving with both the RRS and the LR4 vs. the X5. They are very different vehicles. In the Land Rovers, you definitely have the high, commanding presence, and there's a ton of...

I'd err toward Porsche Cayenne S, but it's a little unfair since with options I'd get it up to 86K pretty quick while the X5 hits about 69K for me. The interior of the Cayenne is unbelievably...

Torn between new X5 or '13 LR4

I drive an X3 now and like it a lot, but am looking for a larger vehicle with more oomph. I'm torn between waiting on the new X5 this year, or going with a '13 LR4 with the luxury package.

Am I...

I like the front, not the back at all. I have an X3 now and if this were a little smaller I'd say, oh, the updated the X3!

The obvious question -- have you checked the audio settings?

My best guess is that some connection to the subwoofer came loose. No joke, but I have friends where this happened to their BMW when...

Looks like a slightly more feminine version of the current-gen X5 to me, albeit, the potential for a more useable third row and of course any new technologies may be enough to steer me to it.

I don't know if this helps but when I read the "pros" list for the X3 I was smiling and nodding while for the Q5 I was like "ehh."

Interesting that BMW tops the list, but only for its SUVs. I thought the new 3 series might crack the list.

That sounds rather low. I'm surprised. I guess they get perks around ownership of BMWs.

That's better than having your one-year old throw it in the trash Sunday night and realizing too late as the trash collectors wish it away to a landfill probably in New Jersey. :cry:

I really wanted it but preferred a black exterior, which is not the best combo with grayish brown. I'd steer to the white and silver palette for the best compliment.

Maybe I'm the only one but I don't like the looks of the EVOQUE. It's a little too girly for me; I prefer the old school LR box design.

That said, I much prefer the X3's handling and overall...
