The Bottom Line: The supercharged 2006 Range Rover Sport is a car for those concerned more with making an impression than with enjoying the ride.

The Bottom Line: Under most conditions, the 2006 BMW X5 still drives as well as its more recently designed competitors, but it shows its age in the quality of its interior tech offerings.
