And the FX50S isn't exactly slow or poor handling:
C&D FX50S Numbers:
Zero to 60 mph: 5.0 sec
Zero to 100 mph: 12.6 sec
Zero to 140 mph: 32.4 sec
Standing ¼-mile: 13.6 sec @ 104 mph
Top speed (governor limited): 155 mph
Braking, 70–0 mph: 161 ft
Roadholding, 300-ft-dia skidpad: 0.87 g

I think it's a legitimate comparison. The FX50S is the closest thing I would use to compare to the X6. Japanese cars have always provided better "value performance" while European cars (ie: BMW, Mercedes, Porsche, etc) have typically offered more status and prestige along with their performance.
