Thanks for the feedback. I walked away from the deal and am now exploring other options. The poor residual and the dealer initially way marking up the MF left a bad taste in my mouth.
Understandably. I feel like you could get nicely optioned Q5/X3/GLC/CX60 for that much? Bigger cars, yes, but if the increased size isn’t a problem for you…
I was given an xt5 loaner for a week, it has the driving personality of a school bus. Even the brakes were mushy. The xt4, while smaller, seems to be a tighter, polished vehicle. The xt5 felt tired to me, yeah it’s had a few refresh cycles. But still.
