Yep, it will be world's first 3-piece folding spoiler. With "BMW Power" tagline in the back.

" The next level of Extreme Sport"

The new BMW X6.

Thought of this today whilst I am location scouting in Scotland. Found a very visual location called "Inverary" fantastic driving roads, piers in front of huge hills, and great scenery took lots of footage to show how I think it will work. It was very warm today...
Tomorrow I go to "John O' Groats and other local locations.

I don't buy it Luw... just like I don't buy that the CLS is a coupe.

Just because Pontiac or MB or whoever start calling them coupes, it doesn't make them so.

Someone should gives these marketing morons a dictionary!

This will be like one of those moments when you finally see a person who always wears a hat, finally take it off.

Hehe, so right. I cannot wait for this car, really...

Just hoping that Huck is wrong with his CGI where it shows copy and paste X5 front on the new X6...

klier · 04-18-2007, 08:42 AM

Me neither. If I like it, I buy it

Just_me · 04-20-2007, 03:23 AM

So no X6 this month?

EMpower · 04-20-2007, 03:36 AM

No, no!

X6 has 4+1 doors (+1 for tailgate), and will be even few milimeters longer & wider (yet lower) than X5.

Is he talking about X4, perhaps?

EMpower · 04-28-2007, 12:57 PM

More pics.

wltsm · 04-29-2007, 07:09 AM

Looking at these latest shots, the front does look very similar to the X5, I hope they aren't going to be clones at the front!

EMpower · 04-29-2007, 07:49 AM

But it looks much lower than X5.

I was always told that the Motorsport division wouldn't put their stamp on anything that didn't fit the M way of doing things, i.e. any large car like a 7-Series or any X model. If they're going to do a X6-M then they must be going back on this somewhat.

Tycoon: He means that M division has changed its strategy. It used to offer only athletic coupes & sedans, Now it is offering Trucks also (X6) ...
