thats incredible! they gotta come out with a new m5/m6 engine asap, or else they'll be losing all of their sales...to their own SUV???

He didnt understand exactly how it would work being the X5 is built in the US. he said they were told there is no euro pick up for any x vehicle to date..the M must change that....idk , i sent him the link from this site to have a look....

:dunno:

:popcorn:

Perhaps they assemble the main components of the X5 M in SC then send them back to the fatherland to be "M ized"?

$86 K for an X5///M....I've thought a lot about this number over the past few days. This sounds like a very reasonable 'bang for buck'...

Am I drinking too much Bavarian Kool-Aid?? What am I not getting here??This will be the SUV to top all SUVs, and it comes in what, like $35K cheaper than a Porsche Cayenne Turbo S. $35 K!!! But it gets even crazier. The new X5///M is still a cool $12 K LESS that a regular Cayenne Turbo. That's Turbo, without the 'S'! To me that's astounding. What IS the catch?:dunno: Is Porsche really that high on themselves that they think they will compete at their price levels?

ha , thats kind of what i was thinking..will see.

to the Cayenne , i think they sell so many of them they really dont
worry about the price or X models ... well untill they see "4.5" "0-60."stats.. im sure Porsche is now working on the cayenne turbo super duper s.
i was just looking at the turbo s today and hoestly in my opion its
ugly...cool yeah but something doesnt look right to me..

im glad bmw is the king again in the suv wars ...

Any new updates?

Also, when will we be able to build an X5 M on BMWUSA.com?

OMG.. I am saving my pennies. I only owe 44k on my '09 X5 :-) Thanksfully it's 0.9% interest.
