The V8 must be in M3 range.
It is not quite that fast. I know you love your X6 and it feels fast to you but those times are not realistic. X6 50i is low 5 range (5.2-5.4) and X6 35i is low to mid 6 second range.

Once tuners like Dinan and Vishnu come out with with tunes for the 50i then it will probably be M3 fast if not slightly faster. The X6 will certainly get you a lot more attention than the M3.

My 50i feels about the same as my previous Lexus IS350 but with more torque which is definitely needed to move 5,000+ lbs.
