I have a little girl, so the cargo area in the X5 is more practical for me.

Which specific reviews?

I'll see if I can find it. Keep in mind that I had professionals in quotes for a reasons - I don't believe everything they write.

I don't think the X6 is ugly... I believe it is trendy and there are numerous similar styles...(Infinity FX models for one...)

it does ride on the same chassis and have the same technology (suspension, steering, and tech toys) as the X5 but comes with more power..

haven't seen any bad ride reviews... can you send links?

Tow package + 35d and I would have bought the X6. But not in the US

The X6 has different technology than the X5 which gives it more agility. Dynamic Performance Control from BMWUSA site:
.Dynamic Performance Control switches power between the left and right rear wheels to stabilise the vehicle within milliseconds and help increase traction and lateral acceleration. Handling is lighter and more precise during normal as well as difficult driving conditions.
