2010 Military Sales Pricing: X6 Xdrive 3.5i

mikethewxguy · 10-15-2009, 06:43 AM

Please see attached pdf.

I'm torn as all get out...trying to decide between the 2010 X6 or 2010 M3...

Thought this might help those eligible to receive Military pricing. I'm headed to Germany come February 2010.

I also was trying to decide between the M3 and X6 (50i). I decided on the X6 because it suited my needs better. As far as comparing the 35i with the M3, its apples and oranges. The 35i will not have the same "thrill" of acceleration as the M3 and the handling is very different as you would expect for a 5000lb+ vehicle.

The X6 50i gives me the better performance (compares very well with the 335i) with some more practicality...more space (family 0f 4), X-drive, better interior, and there just aren't that many on the road allowing it to stand out more as compared to the 3 series/M3.

Also, you did not mention if you had test driven either vehicle or your situaation(?family, ?snow). I would think hard about the upkeep of the M3 compared to the X6....

Check out some of my threads: "Should I get the M3 or the X6 50i" I started one in the M3 forum and one in the X6 forum.

Thanks for the feedback.

I have not had the opportunity to test drive either of the vehicles as of now...that will come in March/April of 2010 (when I get to Germany).

I still need to get the X6 50i pricing from my salesman..so far he hasn't sent it to me...guess I'll have to send a reminder.

That being said...looking to stay ~$55k for whatever I buy. I think that will make the 50i just above my limit (as it stands now).

I will definitely test drive both the 35i and the 50i X6....and if it gives me what I need (the 50i) then i can already see myself springing for it

Thanks again
