I looked up how many threads there were about it on Bimmerpost and I believe less than 10 lol. It's by far the most aggressive, best sounding and best driving SUV I've ever driven. So much so...I'm looking at them right now and trying to convince my wife it's worth the cost of admission.

With all the new releases BMW has coming out...90% of them having me feeling underwhelmed and after a solid 10 years with the brand - I'm disappointed. The new X3M/X4M range is "cool" at best...but for $80k+ I'd be shopping elsewhere in a heartbeat.
Personal preferences should control buying decisions. The Stelvio may be "by far the . . . best sounding" SUV YOU have driven, but it doesn't touch the Jag SVR or GLC63. Many reviewers have commented that the Stelvio's sound is opened only when put in race mode.

I considered the Alfa, but decided against it because of far inferior interior parts, infotainment system, and lack of the full exhaust sound in normal operating mode. Plus I don't have a dealer within 100 miles. Again, to each his own.
