Silly question...

[critical_mass]

Hello;

Interested in a X5M as Porsche is turning me off due to dealers gouging customers with GT cars...


Is it possible to do an ED w/ the X5M? How does that work if the car is build in the USA--do they ship from the US to Germany to be picked up?

Sorry for the dumb question

Lol best post of the day...

No ED on BMWs produced in South Carolina. You can do a performance center delivery.

Save the $50k by buying an X5M instead of a Cayenne Turbo S. Then fly to Italy, rent a Ferrari for a week, stay at nice hotels, and eat good food. Then you can tell everyone you own an X5M and traveled Europe in a Ferrari.

Another option is take the $50k saved, add $25k more, then take Euro delivery of a loaded M3/M4 in Europe.

Win-Win

I love Porsche 911s and 918s, most likely own a 911 soon before they all go turbo. There's nothing desirable about a Cayenne, other than you're paying for the brand.

X5M beats the Cayenne Turbo S in acceleration, cornering, braking, design, technology, and creature comfort.

So the choice here is pretty simple unless you're brand loyal to Porsche.

Shipping a X5M from South Carolina to Germany to be driven for a few days then shipping it back to the USA???

Hey! I can dream can I?

Anyways, thanks for the help fellas. What's the discount on the performance delivery?

Cheers

Nothing- but you get a day at the performance school.

As far as discounts go, you should have no problem getting >7% off a new X5M.

Best piece of financial advice I've read in a long while...

Hahah, life is short. Gotta do live like it's your last week alive once in a while. Money can always be made back, not memories.

Not a dump or silly question. Lots of folks here crossed shopped the two.

By most measures the BMW is the superior product...but that may not always be the case.

Thanks for all the feedback fellas. I'm working with my dealer from which I also get my Porsche crack from. Sticker for my build is $107,369 and my offer is $99,400. Waiting for response....wish me luck

$50k will get you almost halfway to a nice used Ferrari so just buy both! Hell my X5M is faster than my Lambo to 60 and drives much better, my Ferrari is probably a hair faster than the X5M though and it lets the top come off which the BMW can't, it's a 6 figure blow dryer with a prancing horse lol.

My dealer said performance center delivery was not an option when we bought ours but then again it's also 2,000 plus miles away so it would be a long drive back.

I never really considered the Cayenne Turbo or S model. With the options I wanted in these cars, the total would be around 140-150. Paying the much for a daily driver is silly!
