A coupe never had such capacity. An activity vehicle, never such adrenaline. The X6 Sports Activity Coupe has broken all barriers and found itself in a class all its own.

Couldn’t agree more. The 911 didn’t falter when the Cayenne was introduced, the car is still the most popular sportscar >$200k in Australia by a country mile. Too many people allow themselves to forget that cars are made by companies.

haha the pompous, indignant, stuck-up replies are hilarious

BMW M GmbH decide what M means, not you – get over yourselves. These vehicles are brilliant – a mere second slower around philip island than an M3 after only a couple of laps in the hands of brabham despite their weight and centre of gravity.

As quick as this is, it would not touch and it would be thrased by the fastest/quickest SUV on the planet, the mighty Italian Fornasari [goggle] it.

Fornasari MORE power, QUICKER times, HIGHER top speed.

win x win x win

“Luxury runs fast” nice motto!

Hear, hear

This monstrosity spits in the face of M-car tradition, it is nothing more than brand dilution and BMW is selling the soul of the great M badge.

Does BMW simply not understand that the M badge is one of the last remaning badges that actually means something to people? Its got such a massive reputation that its built up since the e30 M3, and now it culminates in this horrid mass of metal and leather and plastic.

Just look at that 2nd last photo, it looks as though it simply wallows over the pavement without a contemplation of being nothing more than a oversprung barge with this false sense, and may I also say utterly pathetic attempt, of sportiness and excitement.

What ticks me off is that I’m afraid that in 15-20 years time, its going to become a bit of a cult car, kind of like the Rambo Lambo (The awesome LM002).

Completely fail to get the point of these. If you can afford this monstrosity, you can afford a better performance car for road and/or track AND an SUV for your trophy wife (or your trophy toyboy, equal opportunity after all). Who want to drive this anywhere, for that kind of money?

They have kept true to their roots – you’re being silly
