Brabus for ever my friends.

I will contact the french Brabus importer to get some quotes cause the 4 pipes exhaust and the 18 inches monoblock IV would fit our car quite well!!
Believe me, Brabus put AMG on shame with this one.

Good luck paying for it

I'd pick nothing. There's too much stuff going on right now to settle on a SUV. The first model years always suck, the X5 is a dead weight, and the Cayenne should be refreshed soon.
