What made you get the X5 over the Cayenne?
The only Cayenne model I considered was the GTS. It's probably the best looking, but it wasn't available at the time I purchased my X5 and it was $35-40k more (rather have an X5M for that price). The other models, except for the Turbo (S), don't look very manly. Too many curves for my taste. When I see a Cayenne (non-GTS/Turbo (s)), I think of a chick's car.

Overall, I really like my X5 35i SAV. It looks agressive, sporty, and it's very practical. I haul large LCDs, 2x4s, and boxes around. The Caynnes are smaller and lower, compared to the X5.
