Looking at midsize luxury CUV/SUV. Such as Q5, X3/5, GLC, etc.

As far as exterior styling, I think i like these the most. Audi has great interior, but I'm not crazy about the exterior, although the rumored 2017 q5 looks better.

GLC


LR Discovery Sport

Grab a X3 and support all those good American workers out there in South Carolina!

I dont know if you're willing to lease or not, but I just grabbed a cadillac SRX for my daily car for work. The sticker on mine was $51,150 but cadillac is doing a killer lease special to get rid of them before the new model is coming out in a few months so I got a 27 month lease for 10,000 miles a year for $3500 down and $399/mo. The land rover discovery has a similar lease but for me the 27 month was nice bc I dont want to tie myself to the same car for a long time. To pay $14,000 for 2 years of driving a new car under warranty is worth it to me. Also Im pretty sure with a new model coming out the car will not be worth $35k+ in 2 years, so the deal beats buying for sure.

Great interior.

Not a bad price.

Rides like you're driving on clouds.

Interesting, I was looking at the new XT5. Didn't think about any deals they may be doing.

I had a loaded out GL450 and it was a hell of a ride. Just be ready to pay because it was pricey.

I am in a 2017 Q7 courtesy loaner from Audi New Orleans right now. It is a totally new design inside and out. The interior and controls are fantastic, and the Q5 will probably get a similar facelift. The new Q7 starts at $58k.

Do yourself a favor and get the XC90.

quote:

2017 Volvo XC90 – Volvo has clearly explained that the brand-new XC90 represents the future of the business. If that holds true BMW, Audi, Mercedes, or even Land Rover must be fretted, because the Swedes- in their own quiet method– have just put them on notice. It could be hard to believe that the source of this Teutonic fear could be a Swedish seven-seater, however the new XC90 is anything but normal.

Barry, I wasn't even looking at a cadillac, but I need an SUV for work to haul supplies and whatnot and I was just googling around lease specials for SUVs and I started searching around for good lease programs and cadillac had a killer one for the MSRP and I asked the salesman why and he told me it was because a new model was coming. I can buy it for $34,500 when the lease is over but I see no way the SRX is that price in 2 years with the model out, there's just no way so its a killer lease imo.

Believe it or not, this is very important to me.

I hate driving. So, if I want a vehicle, I have 3 requirements:

1. Safe
2. I don't want to feel the road.
3. I don't want to hear the road.

If you can give me those 3 things, I'm in.

You people. What does it say about a person when they feel like they need to blow a load on a depreciating asset to feel adequate?
