And? What's the point? Hell it makes more compromises than even our E60s. In fact those kind of cars make the most compromises. They want to be as luxurious as a luxury car but ain't, they want to be as sporty as a sports car but it ain't, they want to be offroaders too like proper offroaders but it ain't that either...and bla bla bla. The list can continue. This type of cars is the most terrible cocktail of them all, with only compromises and nothing A+ on any chapter.
I don't care it pulls as much G force as my E60 or whatever, i know it will not outbrake me, it will not outhandle me the only thing it will probably do is it will outrun me on a straight line ohhh and it will probably go through 2 inch steeper potholes. It still has the center of gravity of a block of flats whatever you do to it. Want a sports car get a sports car (eg 911), want a 4 door sedan with sporty influences get an E60, want to get the mother of all luxury get a Maybach or Rolls. They have to introduce the Jeep Grand Cherokee cabriolet and i'm sold

Hahaha you 100% sure about that?

Sounds like you're upset that they made a stupid SUV so fast and can handle so well that can out run you almost anywhere... (* I said almost...*) in certain twisty roads or certain tracks I think this Jeep will kick a lot of E60s butt because of its 4WD system it can put is power DOWN. Those differentials in the Jeep work very well... He might need to slow for a corner a little sooner take the corner a little slower but he'll exit out and blast to the next corner much faster than you.

Remember. Its all around in a track. just because you can turn better doesnt mean you'll win. Track or Twisty.

To me this JGC gets as much respect from me as the Ford F150 SVT from a few years back (oh yeah... where is that vehicle today?). The SVT had similar performance numbers as the JGC but it's still a franken truck. I wouldn't give a BMW pickup that had lots of cargo capacity any more respect either. But you're right... freedom of choice is a good thing.

I wonder if the same people here that are in disagreement with this vehicle feel the same way about the X5 4.8.....Hmmmm.

Almost the same.

I reckon the little roundel on the hood and trunk of the 4.8 X5 makes it an exception to the Cayenne Turbo S, ML 63 AMG, and JGC.
