Anyway, for the X6 ///M, BMW should've used a different engine, IMO.
Not full time...but helps pay for gas,camera equipment,etc.We have been talking for about a year...she is VERY selective on what she will accept...finally found a few things that will fly.Thanks for the nice comments.Despite what the head of the M Division has said (the X "M"'s will have tweaked TTV8's) the engines still sound to me like V10/V12's in both the X6 and X5.I got a good listen this time....much higher pitch exhaust note than the TTV8 found in the 50i X6......and I've heard the TTV8 exhaust note 100's of times over the last couple of years.The exhaust system/note might be tuned to sound like a V10/V12...I'll guess we'll find out in the near future.Thanks! PalBay
