I have a different view. At least with the sports activity package or m- sports (only way to get leather sports seats in the US), I feel (and my wife agrees) the X3's interior is more luxurious than a q5 or lexus rx. The ML and cayanne are a bit more luxurious (and only really in the lower door plastics which are softer than the hard ones in the X3), but they don't compete in the same price brackets. I would agree, however, than the base fake leather does not look that luxurious. We got the sports seats because we felt they were much more comfortable and looked much better than the base versions (which is another demerit of the q5 – crappy seats in the US versions as we do not get the S-line sport seats the rest of the world gets).
