2011 X6 50i (Pics)
 
6 Attachment(s)
First full day with my new titanium silver '11 X6 50i. What an awesome vehicle. Leaps and bounds above my '07 X5.

I almost got a Porsche Cayenne Turbo, I'm soooo glad I didn't. This car has more than enough power and the tech in this it is simply awesome. iDrive is so much improved and the the top and side view cameras are fantastic. And most importantly, it drives so incredibly well. It's hard to believe that it is such a big and heavy vehicle.

I really couldn't be happier... except I have to get the break-in miles under my belt :D

Very nice car. I hope that when I graduate college i can pick one of them up (pre owned of course!)

Thanks! Definitely a huge bang for the $ over the Cayenne. Having said that, the CAyenne is a great car, I just don't think it looks as interesting as the X6

I think so, too! I am back in the X6 camp. Did you fold the seats down yet? do you think the dogs can sit behind me with seats folded? They only about 2 1/2 feet. If I order the X6, does anyone know what changes are they go to make to the refresh?

I actually did fold the seats down to take a large box for disposal. I thought it was going to be far less roomy in the back than it is. Seats however do not fold flat - though not too far off.

As far as dogs go, it depends on how big they are and if they like to move around a lot, in which case the X5 would probably be preferable.

Also keep in mind the rear of the x6 is quite higher vs the X5 & Cayenne

Well, they actually like to sit and look out the windows. One likes to lay down on long rides, so I am ok. I am going to get them a ramp either way. Or I am getting a 2010 535ixT. I found quite a few new ones left over. I think they would be much more comfortable. So, if I get the touring, can I still be in the club??;)

The Touring is a sweet car, but it won't be nearly as fun to drive as the X6 (or Cayenne). Having read your posts on this and other boards, I think you will get bored of the touring pretty quickly. If however, you do get one, you may still be in the club :thumbup:

You're right. Can't do anything today. that high priced toyota is in my garage, no buy-back, but the dealer is going to do something for me. I don't want another Lexus, so I guess they can pay down my lease, then I can trade it or sell it to carmax. I'll keep you posted. So, is the honeymoon over yet??? or do you still love it?:D

Bummer on the Lexus. Honeymoon is not over yet - still get a big grin every time I drive it :-)
