Off-Topic Audi v BMW - need opinions

[Number1CanesFan]

Ok so I’m really struggling between an X3 and a Q5. Anyone have direct experience or thoughts they can share? Haven’t driven either yet but more looking for feedback on quality, any problems, etc.

Don't buy a BMW. I've owned four 7 series over the last 20 years and I will not buy another one. I love the car, but it's high maintenance and there's always something going on. The car will hit its max repair just as soon as the warranty runs out.

This is pretty much the case for all their models.

They design their vehicles such that even a $5 part requires taking a substantial number of components off to get to it. They specialize in Rube Goldberg design. I've had enough.
