dont buy one without.......
Adaptive drive !
Here in the UK the raods are getting worse and comfort is needed more than cornering ability. Before I bought mine, i test drove both and the difference is day and night. The one without crashes over bumps and throws you left and right when travelling on minor roads. The adaptive drive is a magic carpet in comparison even though I have 21" wheels on. Also I do not know what all of the fuss is about the deisel versions. The diesel is still noisy and you will not get the acclaimed mpg bmw state , it feels rough in comparison the the petrol 35i. The 35i is also very quick once you get it around 3000revs , hence i went for the petrol, I get around 25mpg which is not much different to the diesel i test drove. Couple of other musts..... Comfort seats , not only does the back section curl inwards to supoort your neck and shoulders, the 2 side outer suports curl in and grab your back nicely. Voice control, not a lot of money for something which is very clever. Logic 7 sound , zztop full on ! Also, i cannot understand why the x6 standard trim is without the matt alluminium side window trims. All of the BMW sale literature shows it with it on and the car looks far better . It takes the eye away from how long the car is and gives it a more compact look. Mine is black with the matt allunmiuim trims |

So far the only mistakes they seem to make at the factory is to install the incorrect battery Last edited by dmlgc; 11-06-2009 at 11:32 AM.. |

I completely agree about getting the Adaptive Drive- well worth it. And for just a few hundred (or a thousand) dollars more you get the Sport seats, etc. of the Sport Package. The Sport seats are fantastic.
Regarding the "new" run-flats- Our 1/2010 build has Bridgestone Dueler H/L 400 255/50/19's on it. The ride is great but I don't know if those are the "new" tires. If I were ordering it again, I would add the soft-close doors. Just a personal thing. What a fantastic car! |
