Looks like it for sure. They just brought it back with the 6-series Sport Package and it was available on the previous X5 4.6si.
Best "M" color in my opinion. Looks Stunning.

The components they are talking is just meant to show that the M3 (in any form) does not share anything but 1 part from the non-///M version. The 1 Series also shares many of the components from the E90/92. It is interesting how they designed these cars to maximize the ability to share components and keep costs down. Still wish they could have done a CF roof on the sedan but that was too costly.

lol Or saying you wont be able to tell the difference between X5 M and X6 M? I bet they are doing it, like they did the M3, to keep costs down... Lets guess at base MSRP... $64,750 (Base 4.8i is $56,200)

Generally on SUVs cross-drilled brakes are not used because there is a greater chance of debris (pebbles) getting caught in the holes. Of course, I doubt any of these trucks will be going off-road...

i think the beauty of these two vehicles is going to lie in the amazing amounts of torque the engines will produce. i'm not convinced that BMW will stick to the 4.4L displacement (someone please confirm). i don't doubt that BMW will increase displacement (4.6L, 4.8L).
Now, considering these engines will probably be in the next gen M5 & M6... i want to see those beauties soon!

I believe that all of the changes that you guys are mentioning will take effect on the production model. Test mules aren't optioned the way the production model will be..

As for the X6 it will start at about 88900 I bet. I have an X6 35i on the lot for 72,000 and that is not even an 8 cyl. The 8 with a lot of options is well over 80k. The X6m may even start at 90k at least.

Believe it or not, but an ///M3 can be had with cloth-like seating... I'm sticking with my $64,750 base for the x5, I'll go $72,750 on the x6, why anyone would pay more for an x6 is beyond me. The x5 M has the great looking front of the x6 but with a normal body and rear-end of the x5. Best of both worlds IMO.
