I see a lot of X6 on the road as well.

I saw 4 different X6 M's driving around Manhattan the other day at random times. One had a family in it so I'm not sure that they were demo cars.

Personally, I feel it's a travesty to the M badge.

the X6 is one of my favorite designs on the road. although the price seems insulting, you certainly are getting more for the $$ than the likes of the Cayenne Turbo, Range Rover, etc.

if youre in the market for a super-luxury nonfunctional SAV, and have no dollar cap, the X6M will certainly set you apart.

personally, i could think of so many other cars i would want before this. however, the avg buyer probably has a fleet and has already gone through their wish list of supercars.

as absurd as a 95k SAV sounds, BMW will still sell from their limited production. not to mention, this cars performance numbers are unreal for a 5200 lb car. most importantly, sales aside, BMW has gained some performance parts to their toolbox through the development process. its just a bit strange that out of all cars to use as a guinea pig to innovate their engineering, they decided to do so with the X6. its just a bit strange that out of all cars to use as a guinea pig to innovate their engineering, they decided to do so with the X6.

An X6 parked behind me today, I did a double-take when I spotted it from the corner of my eye...

Holy

I liked the X6 a lot less when I saw one in person, but that's still bad ass. What an incredible engine. How much for an X5M?

time for some tuner to drop in that twin-turbo V8 in an M3

Faster in a straight line? Yes, albeit marginally.

Handles better? I'd still have my money on the M6 there.

Same here! Honestly, I'm a Mega Millions Jackpot away from A LOT of Azine members hatin' my garage which would have an X6M, E60 M5 and GT-R featured prominently.

Back on topic, the X6 is MUCH sweeter looking in person than in pics and the M is .

.....then again I'd probably have a CTS-V and a ZR1 in my garage! that said, the X5M is hot. I like the X5 as is, and in M guise I think I like it more than the Cayenne. I'm not a fan of the Cayenne's rear

I thought SUV are for family & kids thus rarely a chance to really stomp on it ... but the numbers are very impressive .... why not get a M3 & then another SUV without the bimmer badge ? Just a thought ...

for the slightly bigger cargo area?

like I said, "to each his own" man...

oh, and btw... when people get "owned" by a SUV from one stop light to another? the looks on their faces are priceless.
