![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | I voted for the X6-M because I own the 50i version of it, and I honestly do think it is the strongest in the looks department, and I am sure it will be a great performer. The second choice would be the ML 63AMG because I love the looks of it, besides I am a secret MB admirer. The third choice will be the X5-M. The Porsche will be the next and the Audi the last.

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | The words "Sport perfomance" and "SUV" don't fit in the same sentence imo. On the other hand if i had to choose one of those i would take the X6.
