Lil' Road Trip Writeup with a few pics and a video you might like, too...

[Meiac09]

Given an Accepted Student Day and a lack of reasonable flights to get to it, I took a ride from Maine to Greenville SC this past weekend. The road trip was nothing too eventful, I toured the inner corridor of where most of you live and got through without any problems. Now onto the good stuff. (This might take a few posts)

We stayed at the Greenville Marriott. We had been there before, and they had a good rate. Look what I stumbled upon...
(as good as you can get without being completely conspicuous)

There were four enormous tents full of them, all three models, and it was the "International Press Launch". I tried to poke around more, but an angry german woman told me that If I wanted to see the X6, wait until it was released and make an appointment at my dealer.
Anyhoo, more photos, and note the black car.
enjoy!

So I went out. Only to find this next to my car...





EDIT: my pics won't upload!!!!

I really want to like the X6, REALLY, I do...
But as of today, April 23, 2008... I just don't...

Maybe my opinion will change when I see it in person, but as I rolled down this post, I saw the first picture of the car and I cringed a little.

The X6's looks are really starting grow on me (with the gigantic wheels). I'm still in disbelief that it won't be offered with a manual trans though.

What's the deal on x drive, will it be on all 2009 4 wheel drives?

Gawd, you HAD to take so many pictures of the X6's hideous rear end.

It's so ugly, it borders on NWS.

Haha, I'm remembering days of Bangle Butt and E90 haters.
It was amusing when the lady hit her head on it and started sweating in italian.

The E90 is boring, dull, and the rear is downright ugly.

OK, I'm confused...

I want an plan to get an X6 at some point in the near future.

So, today I was at the dealer to drop of my X3 for service and while there I went into the showroom and sitting right there on the showroom floor is an X6. Sticker price if I recall correctly is about 65,800.00.

So if the X6 hasn't been released how did it get there.

I plan to call my very good friend who happens to be in sales at this particular dealer tomorrow and play let's make a deal.

[PersonaNonGrata]

I decided that my favorite angle of the X6 is the front. It is the E70 so that's no surprise. The rest of it defies understanding and purpose. It is the answer to a question nobody asked.

The "XDRIVE 35d" badges are awful. They look so cheap and conspicuous. :
