You're always much better off with a more premium vehicle with fewer options than a cheaper car loaded. Not only will it hold its value better, but it will be a nicer car. I think my 2006 X5 was about $50k, and yes it was much nicer than my X1 is. If it had gotten better gas mileage I may still be driving it. But 14mpg just won't cut it for me.
Yeah if I had spent 50k it sure wouldn't have been on an x1. The whole point of buying the car was it was cheap. Especially with the 4 year free maintenance. If you want to spend 50k, x3, 328 wagon or Audi all road would be much better choices.
