actually the engine is quite torquey and the diesel makes it cheap to run, it just doesnt rev v high. it is v roomy and 3rd row seat can actually sit normal human being. but then, for family man like me, why wouldnt I just go buy a previa and then will still have enough $ left to keep my bimmer.

i think your best option is the cayenne, nice to drive (sporty handling I mean), good resell value, girls love it, the rest is really just minor detail.

its a good practical SUV i spose, but surprisingly the head room is quite low. Some reason ive got the range rover sport in my head... the interior is great! love the cream/beige leather!

KC, you are right, but bear in mind you will have to pay double for your monthly car expense ? If I have to buy a jeep, it will be a X5 3.5i or the new Cayenne base. Did you see the new Maserati jeep ? It looks radical.

So far we haven't had any jeep coming out for MD or ND. I wonder how they will performance with us to Tai Mo Shan ?

Did you all know that the last Adult theatre (Kwun Chung Theatre) in Hong Kong will close down at the end of this month ? That's sad. :thumbsdown:
