Unfortunately since the last gen Cayenne came on the market the BMW SUVs, sorry SAVs, can't stand a chance against Porsches'. That's strictly regarding driving dynamics imo. Other things are more taste based. I dont care about space and interior and exterior design are mostly about individual preferences in this price segment. In build quality BMW's not weak at all in this company and BMW's interior is far more pleasant to me than Porsche's. I bet BMW marketing (and not only) guys noticed that dynamic gap and hopefully developing the next gen they'll be chasing (bettering) the best of the competitors. So how long do we have to wait for a drifting BMW SAV?

In defense of BMW it must be said that BMW is developing its cars from scratch. Porsche SUVs are mechanically largely based on VWs/Audis. That means that with a given budget Porsche has to do less and so is capable of doing better.
