Yes. I see that. But it is still an odd comparison
the materials of the GV70 are nicer. But I prefer the design of the Rv 4 interior much much better

It's ok my friend,
I was just raising the point that to many people it's not always about keeping up with others or showing off.
My wife asked me the other day, "why is everything I like always expensive?".
To which I replied, that' life and you have good taste!
Nice stuff is expensive and people like nice stuff. haha

I agree with you! I can't agree that someone would find more enjoyment out of a Rav 4 than a GV70..

I follow what you're saying now.
Uhm yeah, that never happened. lol
The GV70 would be the pick.
Borrowed this pic from the 1st post and can guarantee wife would love it.
It has the bling and premium features and style, I already know what she would would like this car without ever knowing what it is or who makes it.

The RAV4 and GV70 have about as much in common as the RAV4 to a Rolls Royce Cullinan.

What, you don't find reliability "enjoying"?

If you're considering the Rav4 for reliability and dependability, but want the style/luxury of the GV70, and for some reason don't want a Lexus.... Why not get the new Toyota Venza? It's quite nicer than the Rav4 with the same level of reliability and it's a hybrid.
The mid-level XLE Venza is a nice 5k cheaper than the GV70, and the fully loaded Limited trim is 42k, just under the base model GV70 which is 43k.

The only Toyota model that looks like something of a GV70 "competitor" is the upcoming Crown Sport, which won't even be sold here.

Seeing that Genesis is #2 in vehicle dependability behind Lexus as being #1 and Toyota coming in at #7, I am certain I would enjoy that in either car.
But yes, I will accept less reliability for a more enjoyable and sophisticated car.
