Agreed, with the rest of the coupes there is only two doors and there is a clear distinction because of this but with the X6 the only real difference between it and the X5 is the roof line and minus the middle seat, it isn't really a coupe as such.

A big mistake from BMW in my opinion, with 3 kids it rules me out as a car for the wife.
