Lets be honest, it's a better looking vehicle. Wheels are better and I understand it handles better also.
I don't have kids but am worried about giving up that 5th seat..
Am I crazy for even thinking about asking my salesman if he could switch my order?
Please, talk me out of it...

If you think the X6///M is the better looking vehicle, who are we (who is anyone) to talk you out of it?

I say go for it! It's only $2 or $3K more.
Keep in mind though: if you prefer the X6 body, the new X6 50i TT gives you a 440-hp option, and you can get it right now (today) for a cool $10-$15K less than the X6///M. The performance hit in "downgrading" is not as bad as it is for X5///M "droolers" (like myself). You're still in a screaming-fast machine with a X6 50i TT. With the X5 non-M, you're stepping down by 200 hp, and almost 2 seconds on the 0-to-60 mph department.
