It's known as 'experience'.
I completely agree that you most likely will not appreciate the finer details of a vehicle unless you own one and if you base your opinion solely on a magazine or TV review of a vehicle you are a fool.

However, the point I'm making is you don't have to buy buy a vehicle to have an opinion on it or to know what you are talking about. We all own BMW's so most of us get down to the dealership fairly regularly ( )and have a chance to see and touch maybe even drive these vehicles to form our own opinions. The X6 is for a niche market (that some would argue is getting smaller as the economic climate changes) which means a lot of people aren't going to get it or like it.
