The other point I noted from the brochure was the mention of a May 2008 production start for the X50i (in the U S of A) :rolleyes: . The rest of the world has to wait until October/November it seems.

Page 15 does say "Dynamic Cruise Control" being standard under the 'Intstruments and Controls' section.

Is that what I think it is, or is Active Cruise Control different?

That's interesting. I noticed that it has 'Dynamic Cruise Control', which I'd seen discussed elsewhere as being not available on the X6, but it looks like we were wrong.

I doubt VR will be that popular, Red is a difficult colour to choose unless its the classic non-metallic ones, so most people will probably opt for something safer.

VR Colour contrasts

Yes they are definitely applying the 'product placement' approach to their early marketing activities. ;)

Black 35d with 20" style 259s spotted

Another marketing setup (take car off transporter, park in public place, then wait for pictures to appear on internet).

Looks much better than other pictures I've seen of black X6s. :thumbup:

Simon, there has been no mention of either SE or Msport, but the basic X6 is already at Msport levels (sports suspension, 19" wheels etc), so I'm not sure what an Msport version would be anyway.

In the UK, where the X5 4.8i retails at £50,500, the X6 50i is expected to retail at near enough £53,500 (i.e. slightly less than an X5 4.8i MSport) .

So in other words £1000 or so LESS than a...

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). ...
