I too am frustrated about having to wait until fall or settling for a 2011. Resale, on the other hand, may not be an issue- I was originally looking for 2010's used and have found that they are BARELY less than ordering new....and they seem to be selling quickly.

The 2011 that I would order stickers just under $64K and I can order for about $56-57K net of the eco credit. I can't find a used one (other than going to the pre-new iDrive 2009s) for under $50K and most are in the $52-56K range...some even more!

We're talking about the diesel. It's all over several forums and everyones dealer is telling them that both gas engines will be '12 next month but the diesel will not be a '12 until Aug-Sept.

BTW, heard from a birdie that X6 facelift coming later this year will have a diesel version, along with a diesel 6-series. Tri-turbo 45d is the engine they are supposed to get. So a few months wait may be good.

That would be amazing at 354 HP and 500+ torque. I wonder if MPG would go down or if price would jump/eco credit go away for the X5.

It would be good to see that, the 8sp gear box, paddle shifters AND active cruise ... all on the 2012 diesel.

Oh, whilst were at it, lets hope for the new 3 color HUD.

I just got back from my PCD on my '11 Xd and during the factory tour noticed that most of the X6's were 4.0d's so they must be for export but I could see how when the 4.0d is released in the X5 it's all set to go in the X6.

IF you order now, can't you lock in the lease rate, so that you're only subject to the price change?

Any idea if colors like Carbon Black are still restricted to the M Sport Package? I wouldn't mind it so much but the aluminum color roof rails that come with that package look ridiculous and I also want the running boards which can't come with that bodywork.
