Not feeling it, I am going to trade in my current x5 this summer and the x6 is an option for me but I will most likely stick with the x5.

No offense, but that thing is hideous. To each his own though.

Looks interesting, but who would actually get it? Why not just get the X5 when it gets the V8 TT?
My buddy just got one in Texas. Haven't had a chance to call and ask what he was thinking, especially since he has 3 kids.

A friends dealership got 2 in.

His words were something along the lines of "The x6 is the answer to the question no one asked." The headroom was quite limited in the rear (according to him) and it had horible rear visibility.

It was just a giant, useless 2x2 for someone who couldn't make up their mind, so wanted a vehicle that had a piece of everything, but didn't serve any real practical purpose.

edit: I suppose asthetically, it would look alright with, as others have mentioned, some large wheels and a drop and so on...
but that really won't change my opinions on it.

It looks like --

"you will love her... she has a great personality"

lowering it and putting bigger rims on it

"she is not fat... she is curvy"


the engine is probably great... but if I don't get in it (pardon the pun) how will I ever know?

this is the first bmw since the introduction of the e46 3 series way back in '99 that i actually like. now if the'd just fix the 5 and 7 series we'd be in business.

This thing looks better than all the spy photos and artist renditions. I think it's decent looking. Practical? Eh, not so much.
