Interesting point of view. Nothing too new surprising though. Japan cars have always been known to be more "practical" in the sense that you get more sensible technology at a more reasonable price. But at the end, often omitted, it just doesn't drive or feel like a BMW. We know how that is.
Ironically, the original FX was what got me interested in this segment (couple like SUV). I'm pretty disappointed in its new design. Major turn-off. X6 on the otherhand. Hands down winner! |

Did I mention the very weird "air vents" behind the front wheels. Wanna see air vents done right? Look at Jag and Aston, these curved jobs look fug-ugly. Cheap

This is a really silly comparison test. These vehicles don't compete.
For the price of the X6 xDrive35i ($64,420), you will be able to get a fully loaded FX50S... And the FX50S isn't exactly slow or poor handling: C&D FX50S Numbers: Zero to 60 mph: 5.0 sec Zero to 100 mph: 12.6 sec Zero to 140 mph: 32.4 sec Standing ¼-mile: 13.6 sec @ 104 mph Top speed (governor limited): 155 mph Braking, 70–0 mph: 161 ft Roadholding, 300-ft-dia skidpad: 0.87 g |
