I never understood that.
Actually I do understand this. My wife (who does like my X6) hated my M5 and my 550. Dare I say she found them "too responsive" for her tastes. She prefers a nice 328 or in her case, her MDX or her Mini Clubman. Her comment was "You step on the gas and it snaps your head back, you step on the brake and you go flying forward."

So I totally get the "too much car for her" comment.

Also, while I agree that this vehicle is priced way too close to the M version and the M version will probably be discounted and this one won't - this is still a classy vehicle to own and very very rare. If you have the means.....
I understand what you're saying, my wife says the same about my car. But if she drove it for a few days she got used to the throttle and the brake. It's all what you get accustomed to.
