BMW X6M Review by Top Gear America
Featured on BIMMERPOST.com Interesting review by Tanner Foust in which they compare it to Frankenstein and his/its identity crisis. But all in all, he loves the car. Enjoy. |

I'm actually thinking about getting a X5M or X6M
But of course they cost a arm and a leg for them in Taiwan. This vid may help out!

I love the x6m, but the American Top Gear just sucks!!!!
The 3 presenters have zero personality. There is no personality at all when they open their mouths and the whole show feels very scripted. The worst part is the shaky camera footage that they have in each episode. I really hoped that the show would have potential but after 9 episodes it's hopeless! Glad the UK version is back this Saturday |

Singapore is worse, you need a COE before you can buy a car and this COE easily cost between S$36,000 to S$50,000. A brand new X6 35i is about S$330,000 including COE.

i saw that episode and was glad to see that Tanner also loved the beast. he was spot-on saying that it's basically useless as a utility vehicle but that once you drive one you definitely want to keep it, haha.

It has same ground clearance as X5 It fits a lot more in the trunk than Q5, FX, Cayenne It is very capable off road compared to other car-based SUVs (not pure trucks) which are still called SUV It has good tow rating It has good rack accesories Yes, it's 4-seater (for now), but What am i missing??? |

I don't get when people saying it's not suv it's not sedan.
It is a bit of everything, I don't really go offroad, for canadian winter is more than enough, high clearence all wheel drive, good city driving/gas milleage etc. For me this car is perfect, a bit of everything. love X6, i don't need 5th seat if I tranported 5 people everyday I would get not even X5, but maybe GL |

Yes, there is an option for a 3rd back seat now. I ordered it on my 2012 X6 50i.

Yea for 4 seaters ! We don't need to justify ourselves as owners of x6 anymore than owners of roadsters that seat only 2.
Why do we need to have so many passengers to distract us from an enjoyable drive? I recently hauled a boxed 46 inch Sony Bravia TV home from Costco in the x6, (w/ Rear seats folded down) which cannot fit into the wide, but not sufficiently deep trunk of my w126 Mercedes sedan. Since Porsche has styled down the new Cayenne rear end for soccer moms, How many as fun to drive (w/ dpc), masculine-styled Sport Activity Vehicles, r there ? Take a minivan if u need to drag the whole family & the in laws out ! |
