Lol. Yes, different purposes. All things equal your sedan is faster and better handling. Now park it over a parking lot curb, hit a bad dip, or race an X1 AWD up a poorly plowed snowy mountain....
Equally modded X1 will always be A LITTLE slower than the equivelant sedan/coupe N55.
The 500 pounds is because you have no AWD or cargo ability, more like 180 if we are being fair about equality (AWD and *******.
That said, your car does sound pretty kick @ss!
