    Someone once told me the X5 looks like a shitting dog from certain angles. I don't see it, you be the judge. That's the cruelest description I've heard...for a car.
    Yes... Obviously, The Porsche Cayenne is more beautiful than the BMW X5 but I still like the shape of the X5 (I like the whole car).

    no problem I was just curious, the 2CV features on my "best" top 5, while the X5 scores very high on my "worst" but that is related to my general lakc of appreciation (euphemism of the year ) for these sort of SUVs

    Naming your top 5 is easy compared to naming your bottom 5. Pick 5 cars and they are all bound to be lookers. Pick 5 for the bottom and your gonna cause some heartache.
