News on X6M unveiled !
Hi everyone youīre all going to want to kill me because: but I saw and took pictures of the X6M a few days ago but can and will not post them ! Sorry.
Due to my participation in certain other Forums including the official M-Power World forum I have promised not to post any pics what so ever but let me assure you that even though I do not like the idea of such a car and personally dislike SUVīs / SAVīs for various reasons this might be the first car to change my opinion !! The car is just and the power dome on it I really think I could fall for this one! M, you did it again

+2 all the pictures/videos I've seen of an X6 with a power dome said it was the hybrid.
And most of the videos of X6M don't show it either like this one: or this one: or any of the others I've seen. update: think this is bs post, did a search on "M-Power World forum", no hits. Last edited by dmlgc; 03-26-2009 at 12:25 PM.. |

You guys have seen the BMW teaser site for the X6 M, right?
http://www.bmw.com/com/en/general/ne...ter/index.html So we are just 9 days away from knowing exactly what the hood looks like for both of the new cars (X5 M and X6 M)... |

Well Deda if you look at the site Morty pointed to, the links I included or any other pics of X6M, it doesn't have a power dome only hybrid does. I think story is bogus along with the author. hopefully he will hang out in the "certain other Forums including the official M-Power World forum". At this point I'm with amgthis no pics, call bs. |

not to mention the few pictures I've seen of the hybrid with the dome makes it IMHO look butt ugly. |

That's what a lot of people say about the regular X6 when they only see pictures of it... They usually change their mind when they see the car in person

Ya guess your right about that. so I guess it's perspective , to some folks my X6 is butt ugly , to me the huge dome on the hood is ugly. I really hope it ends up looking better than the spy pics.

BTW MPW is separated in two groups: the public forum for all and the private forum for M owners. There is quite an amount of information on the X6M in there, you only have to know how to get too it. ( and of course speak the language ) Quote:
I am however disappointed in the behavior or comments some of you posted. As I remarked earlier itīs your free choice to express your opinion but if this is the kind of response one recieves for posting new information which I thought that some or most of you here would appreciate then Iīll keep it to myself the next time so sad respectfully yours

Hold the phone bubba, you were the one that said you took pictures but couldn't show them because you "particate in certain other forums". You obviously know nothing about the X6 or you wouldn't be making statements like the M would have a powerdome because "it will have a twin turbo and might need the extra space" . My current X6 50i has twin turbo v8 and doesn't need the extra space, actually engine is engineered so well it will be in the new 7 series without a power dome. And "BMW always changed their concept cars slightly after revealing them at the conventions so who really can say that my sighting is BS" , everyone knows the X6 came out almost identical to the concept car, going from big dome to none is really stretching "slightly". This is just BS. There are a lot of X6 owners in this forum and many other folks that have followed the car from the beginning and are well aware of all the upcoming models. Some of the members live near the plant and get us pictures when new models are being tested. I think it would be better that you go hang out in the exclusive forums you mentioned in your first post. Of course a search on the " M-Power World forum" comes up empty so I think that's BS too. Oh just so I will not be misinterpreted I do not mean this as constructive criticism. |

I just had another look at pictures that were posted 2 days ago of the upcoming X5M and X6M. Very little camouflage left on these cars and they appear to have the new M style design for the rims too.
NO power dome to be found on either one of them!

Sorry, forgot to mention I did a search on Google and was specifically looking for German websites (German car magazines). Unfortunately, I forgot to bookmark the links, but if you do a search on Google, you should find them too.
I think even the X5M/X6M Micro site has a link to the new spy shots.
