He went for VR. Good man. I'm keeping my order on VR until I see a few more pictures of physical cars at Detroit.

I believe we have a few weeks yet, before the spec becomes unchangeable. BMW UK are just trying to gather together their firm orders to enable the factory to plan their production slots.

Mine is still VR/Black Nevada/Dark Ash Wood, but if I do change it then I would go for Deep Sea Blue (which is the same external colour as my RS4 Avant).

I've initiated a long and painful debate on Pistonheads to try and help me decide firmly on the engine choice. Thus far I've gone for the 35d, but I plan on consolidating both my ML63 and RS4 into the X6, and it seems sacrilege to dispose of two of the best V8 engines ever made and replace with a diesel...
