Looking for a car.

A relative is looking for a car...

5 door or SUV is preferred but will consider sedan as well
30-65k CAD New. Would like to stay around 40k but if something is actually worth the money in the higher range then it is fine too.
0-60mph in under 7.5s
AWD
Reliability is key

Any suggestions?

Test drove the mercedes GLK - complete POS in every way.
Test drove the BMW X5 - amazing car, but it is a bit slow and it is expensive.
Will test drive the RX350, RDX, and the 3.0L Subaru Outback. Wouldn't want another infiniti in the family so those are off limits.

Anything else?

Something called variety. I will also never buy the same car twice... My personal next will be a BMW. Not because I don't like my g35xs, or I think the BMW is loads better or anything like that, but I like a change...

You can definitely rule out the ML if reliability is key.

Depends on which model your referring to, maybe the V6 is, but i wouldn't call the v8 or the V10 tdi models a POS, especially on its overall performance off road+tow capabilities and comfort, its a great all round for me.

Go talk to the mechanics that work on them. They all say they fall apart and have sub-par build quality.

Not worth the high price. Get an X5 with free maintenance over the Vdub.
