yep you are right there is a huge weight difference.
my 08 x5 has 350hp and I absolutely LOVE the n/a v8 i just cant get over it. it's heavier than the x6 though especially cuz it's got 7 seats. x6 is set back on hp (at 300) but superior torque from the turbo. so from that perspective they kind of cancel each other out. Not so much difference in performance overall imo. i could be very wrong, but if we put them in a drag race i reckon both would get similar results.
x6 has far more tune potential though so if i were to tune it, it would destroy my x5. been driving the x6 for more than a week now, and i can tell you i prefer x5's by far over x6's now that i have experienced x6 for the first time (especially if its an LCI x5).
my dad is kind of disappointed in it too, especially after owning an x5 and a Range Sport.
