Not necessarily. I can't speak for the X6M, until mine get here Monday, but I've felt this issue on other cars. I used to drive a 911 Turbo S and thought the same thing about it. Seemed heavy and slow until you gunned it. We have a Range Rover and a Denali, both with the same weight and similar horsepower. The Range Rover feels like a rocket ship. I've always figured it had something to do with gearing the way it feels like it takes off so much faster. With that said, I actually prefer the feeling of driving around a vehicle that doesn't drive like a race car, but can. I don't like the way the Range Rover jerks everything around. Even my dogs can notice a difference. Hopefully my X6M drives like yours. I love knowing the power is there when I want it, and don't have to be so careful with the throttle.
