Go for it. The X6 is an amazing machine.

I never owned an X5, but I did own an MDX before I got the X6. Although the MDX might not perform as exactly well as the X5, they are virtually identical when it comes to utility, cargo/passenger space, and size/road presence.

You will get used to the decreased rear visibility of the X6 within a week , so that's not a big deal IMO. You say you like the unique-ness of the X6, and I agree with you on that. Nothing on the road quite like it although some car makers tried to compete, lol.

I have driven my cousin's 2006 X5, and it does handle very well, but I must say the X6's driving dynamics as a whole are on a different level. You can almost feel and hear her begging for more...

All in all, you will NOT regret the X6 upgrade from the X5... unless of course your trunk area is currently spilling out it's contents everytime you open the tailgate. Enjoy!
