Gents this side of the forum is way too dead and dry while I understand 100k + ownership level drops quite a bit. I wanted to start a thread what are your other rides besides m8/ 8 series ( not your wife's or partners ). Here's my Cayenne GTS nicely optioned and specd it's my daily even though I've been working remote for the past 8 years. I'm contemplating of selling it and getting a x4m comp . Thoughts ?

We have multiple cars, but mine is the QX80 for daily. I don't know your situation, but if I was you I'd probably buy the x4comp for a daily. |

The new 2019 and 2020 QX80 limited edition has new Hydraulic suspension that really makes a difference. It's 10x easier to drive. Certainly not anything compared to an x5 or even x7; but it's honestly a similar sporty drive as the x7 m50 and similar v8 horsepower. That said, I'm probably getting an x8m to replace it when it dies and the x8m comes to us. |

If you don't mind the harsh ride, X4M is a decent vehicle, although Porsche just nails the ride and handling balance, and the looks too.

We have (wife's car) an X4 M40d and though the M version is a different beast, I can tell you I am (very) positively surprised by how the new G02 handles - at ANY speed. I have driven 255 km/h with this in Germany on curvy Autobahnen and the car felt rocksolid glued to the road. And I can say the same for alpine routes and curvy countryside roads. I am really happy (wife let's me drive it most of the time anyway) with the X4. Just imagine how the X4M Comp does then compared to its little brothers. I personally would take the X4 all the way over the Cayenne as I think the new X4 is sexy too and a different beast compared to the previous model. Actually the new X4 is slick too and when next to an X6 it certainly does not hide from it.
