Considering X6M, Opinions???

shpritz · 03-13-2011, 12:50 PM

I currently own a 2009 E92 M3 and a 2010 RR sport. Getting tired of having two cars on the road. E92 sits in storage all winter. Has another year of warranty left. RR sport is a beautiful SUV but has a lot of minor electrical gremlins and glitches.

I am beginning to think that I might be better off getting rid of both and moving into an X6M and driving it all year round. I would have to put snows on it up here for the winter. We get a lot of snow.

I have read a few threads of others that have traded their M3's and went for the X6M. Let me know your thoughts and opinions regarding doing something like this.

I traded in both my 535 and sports car for the X6M. Absolutely No regrets!

Mate I sold my ESS VT2 E92 M3 bought the X6M

Love it to death!!

Also got 2011 RR Sport which I got for the wife. Love that to, but its no X6M

She says proudly the other da, my car feels much faster than yours as yours has a lag!

I say, "well darling that's because ts turbo charged and yours is supercharged, but clearly you never really put your foot down

I have an X5M so same thing looks different. I do not miss the M3 at all and love the X5M.

It is that good and worth the money over the non M variants. The handling is like the M3 just a bit heavier but it corners like crazy and the power is outstanding.

Winter setup worked really well and the ride was very safe and controlled in the worst of it....Big fun.....go for it and don't look back.....Steve
