It sounds like the X6 is at the top of your price range, and buying new would mean you have to leave off options that you may end up regretting. For instance, there is no way I would be driving any car in Ottawa with leather seats and no seat heater. You need to decide for yourself which options are really necessary and which ones are nice to have. Personally, I wouldn't buy any X6 without heated seats, adaptive drive and a rear camera. I also would need either the premium sound option or the budget for an aftermarket upgrade. YMMV

Have you ever driven a Touareg?

For the record, the X6 50i has the N63 engine not the N54.
Options in Canada are different. Heated seat is standard in all models and Premium package includes the rear view camera as well.
I have 35i and performance is by no means bad and yet same or better gas millage than X6 active hybrid . The sound of the V8 is what I crave for sometimes. It's a tough decision specially because 35i would have new iDrive and Top view camera and ofcourse the new 8 speed transmision.
