But heres the difference.





4.8is interior is trash, and its not comfortable.. The ML feels like a comfy sofa while the x5 feels like a cramped chair.

Agreed on that. The interior of the ML is much nicer. Although, I assume there are some options you can add for the X?

Even with the interior though, I would chose the X. I think the exterior styling is much nicer. To me, the ML is not a sporty car. The ML55 is a more sporty version of the ML320 or whathaveyou, but not a sporty car IMO.

It all depends on your definition of sportyness. Personally if I could, I would like the looks for the X5 4.6is with the comfort of the ML55. 315mm rears on the X5 look awesome, the styling is far more agressive of the ML. But, just because the ML is more comfortable and luxurious, it wins =).

but I bet if you had the X5 that would win instead of the ML?

The ML55 is a more sporty version of the ML320
I would whole heartedly agree with this statement. Although I dont think it looks sporty, just maybe meaner, if thats possible... its more menacing then a 320 or a 430... where as an X5 seems like an athelete, very nimble... Sporty in other words

I sat in both the X5 models, and drove the original pre face lift one, I liked the ML a LOT more. And Now I love it.

To me, the X5 is a really sexy SUV. The 4.6 and the 4.8 are amazing, and I'd pick one over the ML anyday.

If your limited at around 25k, go for the X5. If you like the current styling, you won't mind "not having" the new.
This with out a doubt is a the best choice Godfather in your price range
