It's a disease I tell you...

Let it fly, L - I enjoy the entertainment... :thumbup: ;)

Am I the only one to like it better than the concept? I'm glad they toned it down. I kinda like it. :thumbup:

I hate to say this, but I expected more. I thought it would be identical to the show car. Still nice, but expected more.

Best reason yet for debadging....

I LIKE it! :thumbup:

I have approval from the CEO to buy a new X5... I may have to go with the X6, though. :D

So, two (or three) questions, Sunil:

- We know how much HP the bi-turbo I-6 makes. How much does the X6 weigh? They talk about lightweight materials, but don't tell you how porky it may or may not be.

- Do we have any performance (0-60) numbers?

- What is the price point? Please, for the love of GOD, someone tell me how much this thing is gonna cost???

The V8 is 0-60 in 5.3 :D :zoom:

There's performance numbers in another thread (km though). I'll see if I can find it.

Here it is

0-1000m (standing km)

xDrive50i - 24,6

xDrive35i - 27,2

xDrive35d - 27,3

xDrive30d - 29,1

By way of reference the claimed performance figure for my AMG ML63 is 0-1000km in 23 secs.

Ugly as hell, but seems to have all the igredients to perform very well. :thumbup:

How much does it weigh?

Weight . Euro version w/o driver and lagguage 50i - 2,190kg, 35i - 2.070kg.
E70 . 3.0si - 2,000kg, 4.8i - 2,105kg

Price. In Germany +6% for 50i over the X5 4.8i, + 9.5% for 35i over the X5 3.0si

Accaleration, 0-62mph 6.7sec (=35i), 5.4sec (=50i), x5 3.0si (8.1sec), 4.8i (6.5sec).

:thumbup:

Scott27, the 50i is described in BMW's literature as 'replacing' the 4.8i and there is no mention of the 4.8i in any of the German press material..:confused:

So, it's heavier than the e70, only .2 seconds faster than the e70, and it will probably cost more than the e70? :confused:

I'm sure it will handle better, especially since the e70 is softer than the e53, but... as much as I'd love to have one, I don't know I can pull the trigger... I'll have to wait to see some pricing, I guess.
