So how often do you see an X6 on the road?

When I was in California, I only saw once when I was there for a week. I guess it's good right? Don't want the X6 to be like the X5 where you can see it everyday!!!!

I see them everywhere but here

I was in London for two days and saw three of them and in Greece for five days and saw four of them.

Here I'm lucky if I see one a month.

Now, speaking of which, WHERE ARE PICTURES OF YOUR X6!

In the SF Bay Area, I've seen probably no more than 10 or so in the year or so since I've owned mine.

Oddly enough though, I am visiting Taipei at the moment and saw one parked on the street, which is one more than I'd ever expect to find here. A very tightly packed urban environment with narrow streets and alleys and insane traffic is probably the last place I'd want to have a car like this. But I also saw a Lamborghini cruising around yesterday, so what do I know?

Count update: Now have seen 4. A local friend described them as "rolling houses," referring to the cost, as one of these here can cost more than a house (!) once import duties get added in. Makes me glad to be in the US with our "cheap" cars lol.

I see them regularly. There are two in my neighborhood (White and Space Grey). On a random street in Clinton Hill, I say my first X6M. Black I think it was. None were 2013... they all looked good... (smile).

Saw quite a few in London, although it seems that Range Rover and Range Rover Sport seem to be the most favorite vehicle in central London. Was surprised to see that Police has quite a few BMWs as well.

I've seen only one here in Tallahassee in the last 2 months. I've seen lots of X5s.
