By the way..the X6 is going to have a base price starting north of 60k that puts it out of this class of cars handily.

Add the new Audi Q5 to the poll. They debuted that in the same place, same day as the GLK, and it looks just as promising. Now I'm justing waiting for the 1st person to put a diesel in them.

Q5 was just reviewed and is aimed at the X3 and GLK as the main competitors.

Plenty of competition awaits the 2009 Audi Q5, and as you'd expect, its exterior proportions nearly match those of the BMW X3, Infiniti EX35, Land Rover LR2 and the upcoming Mercedes-Benz GLK and Volvo XC60. Audi also names the Lexus RX 350 — the progenitor of the not-too-large luxury crossover SUV breed — as a likely rival, but the midsize RX is a few inches longer than the others.

The Bimmer and the Benz are the ones that matter most to Audi, though, and the dedication of the Ingolstadt designers to this rivalry is evident from the moment you open the driver door. The cheaper materials you typically see in this class are absent in the Q5, which has the same top-quality plastics, vinyls, leather and wood as the A4. The control layout is identical, too, and the only appreciable difference is the ability to outfit the Q5 with a panoramic sunroof.
