Well yeah. You just said it. Small trips in NYC. I've shoved myself with 4 other friends in a smelly cab in Midtown, but I wouldn't make a practice of it. You see where I'm coming from ?

For me with a baby in the back it is a huge advantage, wife could sit in the middle and watch over the kid in a child seat. I see this one as a mega improvement (for me), still it does make an x6 a bit less exclusive visually and the title coupe is less justified. That said, the picture of 3 people seating in the back looks hillarious

I have slightly different approach i guess I need to make sure i can safely hookup 2 carseats while my wife can seat in the back with seatbelt on It's doable with current X6, but not "legal" Same goes for having 1 carseat and 2 people seating in the back You see where I'm coming from ? P.S. this looks ok to me: Last edited by AndreyATC; 02-09-2011 at 12:28 PM.. |

I took into account resale value, as I plan to sell it in two years it would still hold good value. A new x5 is coming out in about 2 years time, so would loose more if I got one now. It is very likely after 2 years I am going for the x5 as well.

If i had extra 2 doors and bigger trunk, i'd be more than happy X6 definetelly gives me that, plus more backseat room over my current ride at this point it really comes down to what my priority is Do i want more sport and appeal with less utility, or other way around? I went with coupe, because i hated the look of 2008 335i sedan I desided to go with more inconvinience over looks and sportiness I'll do the same again with X6 over X5 Bench option in X6 is just an icing on the cake |
