Re: Entry-Level Luxury SUV Battle!

GLK first, Q5 second...the rest simply don't matter. Though I will say the Infiniti has a nice interior, but it screams girly car exterior wise. The Acura is a disjointed looking mess. The BMW uh...no. I'd take the new VW Tiguan over all all of these except the GLK and Q5.

Wow so I am not the only one.

Happy to see that there is less biased voting on these forums .

Re: Entry-Level Luxury SUV Battle!

Now, because I have to vote this time.

1. GLK
2. X3
3. Infiniti EX

I'm not a great fan of these car and category. Would never buy one…

I agree, the Infiniti EX does have a excellent interior for this type of vehicle. If the exterior had a more aggressive front and higher ground clearance, it could be a little better. Technology wise the car is near perfect.

Not really...You have to keep in mind that it is a crossover more so then a SUV.

Eni, Why are you so upset about this poll? Is your favourite car doing badly in it? Are any polls on GCZ really necessary? Maybe the 50+ people that have already voted should give you an indication that some people find these polls interesting / entertaining. Give the guy a break!

My vote was for the Q5, btw.
