After a lots of new cars...X5...volvo xc90 etc.. The X6 is the car that often makes me think...wow this beats everything i had in my car history...
+1. I'm with you. X6 still feels fantastic after 16,000 miles (in 8 months). No squeaks, rattles, knocks, hums or anything.... I also don't think that the ride noise is intrusive at all - it's definitely louder at higher speeds with the summer tires on, although still really quiet for a car of this size in my opinion. The Scorpions are quieter than the Dunlop SP Sport Maxx but are narrower so would expect that even though both are RFT's. I was in a friends Cayanne recently - horrible ride and wayyyy noisier than the X6 - I was really pleased I had the BMW after the first quarter mile.
