OK, I know what you are saying, but if it was just all about functionality and practicality, then we would all be driving Subaru Outbacks. Our cars and trucks are obviously huge fashion statements, and probably say more about who we are than anything else we own. And having no regard for the image of the car we drive makes a valid statement too. The challenge for auto makers is to make these "enhanced capability and capacity passenger/cargo movers" stylish too, and some clearly do it better than others.

It says something that you are not only impacted by their comments but that you come here to get reassured from a bunch of faceless folks on the internet.
Buy the car for yourself not anyone else.
You are the one paying for it after all.

The SQ5 is a handsome CUV, you don't need to worry.

Yeah, I know my taste in vehicles is beyond reproach. When I see young guys with rubber bands for tires on their trucks, or wheels painted all black with blacked-out tail lights and windows, I just chuckle. The whole point of fashion and style is to be seen, and cars project an image about their owners whether we say we care about it or not. Actually, I think we all care about image, even those of us who try to make a fashion statement by saying we don't care about it. It's human nature. One thing for sure. If I spend $60,000+ on an SUV, it darn better be my fashion statement.

if your worried about what car your friends like when your dropping 50k on it....
you got bigger problems. cancel your order, take a poll of your friends for what you should buy. then do that.grab a skirt and a handbag to match. then wait on the church steps for your ***** to show up.
