Wow they even picked the 28i over the RRE?

The RRE does look pretty cool, but who in their right mind would pay that much money for such a slug? I understand having a model with a weenie engine for the people who just want the RR badge to poke around in, but why didn't they offer a model with some power to go along with the looks?

When shopping with my wife we thought the Q5 also looked nicer, but was nowhere even close to the X3 35i when it came to how they drive. (RRE wasn't out yet) The steering on the X3 was better, and the 35i engine is way better than anything else in the class. If they only had the 28i we might have ended up with the Audi. Too bad Audi doesn't offer their 3.0T in their Q5, then they would have a real competitor.

I applaud RR for pushing the design envelope, but next time give it some balls!
