Updated info

Well, I spent 4 1/2 hours yesterday getting to know the new X6 quite well. I took place in a focus group where they had a RR Sport, 2007 X5, Porsche Cay, Intiniti FX and the X6.

We were asked to evaluate everything, and I mean everything about the interior and exterior styling of each car. At the end, 8 of us sat at a round table and were asked a series of questions for 2 hours. He asked us detailed questions in regards to our answers.

Their focus was on the rear of the car as well as the back seats. By the way, this car was a 2+2, NO seating for 5 in this one.

The X6 was very much a prototype meaning nothing worked (dials were not functional, plexi windows...).

I looked at the pics you guys posted and this one pretty much is dead on from what I saw yesterday: http://www.xoutpost.com/x6-e72-forum/...-autobild.html

From what I have heard that the front and rear bumper and taillights treatment is more like CS concept.

This is why if you re-read my post again you'll notice that I didn't include any information that wasn't already shown or made available, nor did I give my opinion on the car.

I hope LM is right in that the back looks like the CS concept. I never liked the way the Lexus SUV looked, especially the back and the photoshop above looks like they stole the butt straight from Lexus.
