As for the OP, sorry, but this car is not in the same class as the x5 v8, as it loses to the x5 v6.

First of all I would seriously prefer that U re-read what I typed. I said that the SRX competes well with the X5 in terms of HANDLING.. very well in fact. And altho I am not a fan of the 3.0L in this vehicle... it is still not a bad engine and performs adequate for a base engine. Once the 2.8L hits it will be a CHOICE for the buyer to have. This is something that Lexus, Audi, and Acura owners do not have. My true gripe is that the 2.8L was not the first engine to debut... with a more powerful engine to top off the range, leaving the 3.0L as a base engine for people who were not truly interested in ripping down the highway (yup
.. they exist.. about 80% of buyers in fact), even tho... the 3.0L is fully capable of doing just that
