Thanks for the pics!

It has weenie exhaust pipes and still has as much plastic along the rocker panel, wheel wells, etc. as the X5. Surely, BMW can do a better than that with a car that they're selling as a "sport activity coupe".

palbay, great job.Many of us have been waiting for a black X6 to arrive.
It doesn't look as good as I was hoping it would.I guess I will stick with my VR order at this time.

I've been wondering why the X6 doesn't look as wide as an X5 in the photos we've seen, and I suspect its because the body of the X6 tapers towards the rear (despite the rear track being 5cm wider).

It needs a little more aggression perhaps either from the kind of wheel arch extension that's fitted to the X5 (when fitted with 20" wheels) or by fitting spacers to move the wheels out slightly wider. Do you think that the X5's wheel arch extensions would fit the X6?

I can imagine that the tuners will have a field day with the X6 because it has so much potential (visually and dynamically).

May be it's just me but I just don't think the X6 has the same presence as the E70 X5.
