the car is absolutely wonderful all around. Every option is available, great handling, sporty (almost too sporty and stiff) suspension. Extremely reliable, after owning an Audi A8 - this is a huge sigh of relief!! The fuel consuption is pretty horrible for a V6, but that's what you get for the AWD system. But this too little to think about when you sit behind the wheel and enjoy every moment.

I absolutely love the M. The M has a focus on luxury rather the performance orientated G. The ride is great, but still responsive in the corners. Mileage isn't great, but having AWD in crappy weather helps with that. Everything feels solid and well built, with little to no gaps in panels.

The power that you get from that V6 is amazing considering the wight of the car. Thanks to the AWD the handeling is of the utmost and is very responsive.

Performance - Acceleration is sufficient but much more needed. Braking feels weak. Handling is excellent. Build Quality - So far excellent. Appearance - It's definitely a looker. Every day someone walking past looks twice sometimes three times. Interior is the wheat with woodgrain trim. Technology Package and Travel package. CoW - Well it's 13.6L/100kms so not exactly fuel efficient. I use premium fuel only and the cost at the pump is $60 from 1/4 tank left. Maintenance is a mute point. All I have done since purchase is an oil change, tranny fluid replacement, and coolant flush. Fun Factor - Mediocre. I would like to see more hp. Press the accelerator fall into the seat face warping g forces ;)
