2011 BMW X6 M - First Test

[@miguelmartinez7377]

This comment section is ancient

[@Stu282]

I work at BMW, a few months back somebody bought an X5 M and like all new cars it came with all the PDI stickers on it. They even brag about the efficient dynamics on cars like this, thinking that a 11mpg 4X4 is an eco-queen for having stop start.

[@reevsaj]

It's not for everyone, but if you want a performance SUV, this is one of the best.

[@ColdPizzasocks]

i wish your reviews were longer, but great stuff

[@faisalalmutairii]

The color is SICK!

[@nismo007]

Thats the engine for the upcoming M5, the old E60 M5 sounded the BEST!

[@ash9607]

My dad has 2 of them! They r great for comfort and u really feel safe in them! Can't wait to get new rolls Royce! Dad says it may be a pain cause u have to charge it but we will see!

[@Wenautia]

I love this! I'm not a fan of SUVs, but damn, BMW pulled it off.

[@m3trooper]

How is this the FIRST test?? Hasn't the X6M been out for a while now??

[@CalebRulez2]

Which elite class is better? The BMW "M" class, or the Mercedes "AMG" class?

[@autoanorak]

Can't wait to see a re-tuned version of the X6 M's S63 in the new M5. That'll be epic

[@e40cally]

Say whatchu want,but those numbers are pretty damn impressive

[@SnackeyG]

I think it looks really good.

[@gene978]

@ianhasnolife I know I was playing dumb. The Base 535i starts at $56,500.00 The M full loaded can top 104K 4 Passenger SUV Speed Demon in Style, Comfort and Cargo Room lol

[@TangoR34]

If I was in the M design team I would be pissed off for such a powerful engine ending up in a pointless SUV. That's the nicest way I put it.

[@RK1FX]

m5 costs the same amount. GTR is about 110k USD. What did You expect, a tag price of 50k? This car is a monster.

[@pepene93]

@n9athan they started joining in 07. but this is definitely another step in that direction

[@dlb18]

This car really has a nice road presence in real life, looks so aggressive from the rear

[@idrift4wd]

@nando8nando Do you see those numbers? wheres your bmw?

[@Blueball0120]

This is an another amazing car!

[@justincrap]

Holy Shiittttt. This car weights 2380kg!!! 0-100 4.0secs, 1/4mile in 12.5. braking in 106ft!! With all that size and weight, This is an angry beast sitting on wheels ;'(

[@kare2comment]

whats up with the NJ license plates?

[@MrHarlemworld]

you have very good taste dude! if i say so MYSELF.

[@AMexicant]

@1kounter so why is it called a "Sports" Utility Vehicle?

[@tarikghattas]

these are insane figures!! 4.0 to 100kmh?!!! 106 ft to 0!! that's simply sick sick..

[@ultimaster1]

@ooharloo what are the advantages of a performance SUV vs a performance Sedan?

[@Jude0o]

Whats the point, the cars have different labels for a reason: Sedan - large single/family city car Station wagon - city car for a wroking person or a mom SUV - off road car with space Van - family 6+ person car Its like me going out to a dealership to buy a van because i wanna speed, same with the x6m, who wants a fast suv crossover...?

[@Illmatic662]

This is a bad ass SUV. WTF 60-0 in 106? Thats better braking then the CTS-V I wouldn't buy it, but I wouldn't blame anyone for buying it.

[@thuglife4ever721]

@WTFGUY956 This isnt meant for off-roading.

[@LBB988]

@Illmatic662 the panamera turbo with carbon ceramic can do it in 109 ft!! don't even think motor trend or the others do test for cars for free!! sure they will exaggerate in every thing..

[@sergh8605]

at 1:30 you can see the Porsche Cayenne, and the long test car the Cadillac CTSV Waggon

[@gene978]

HOLY CRAP!! That was Impressive! What do these M5's go for? 25K 30K It's worth it!

[@RokisFL]

Hate it or love it

[@SGTRacing]

as an m3 owner i would rather buy the amg. M division screwed up by slapping an m badge on almost every single chassis. can you say desperate?

[@1kounter]

@TimidALFONS0 an suv doesn't have to be an offroader take for example the gmc envoy

[@DingDongDaily]

@nando8nando wats a better SUV?

[@ooharloo]

@ultimaster1 a sedan can be performance like the evo, m3, cts-v etc. It's just crazy seeing an suv with crazy power! It's bad ass but it's not for me.

[@odeese]

Ive saw this car the other day and i talked to the owner and his is in love with it and i think iam aswell lol

[@123qcr]

you have good style

[@7superduper]

It looks nice and whatever, and is pretty fast, but for me there really isn't a point in starting with an SUV when you're making a performance vehicle. Having a high center of gravity and something that performs terrible off road is useless. It's not a trophy truck by any stretch, it'd be a terrible race car, and it would never work for serious off roading. On top of all those things, SUV's are really heavy. It's basically putting all of your effort and resources into a bad initial idea.

[@mtgear1]

suspension geometry has advanced to the point that even 5000lbs cars can hang with m3's.....unbelievable

[@niggaswitattitude]

@ghrpdx its a bargain price for the speed against the range rover supercharged and porsche panarema

[@nightrider2k6]

i really like mercedez and bmw, really solid beautiful cars but i just wish they were more reliable. mercedez is less reliable than bmw and also feels like a tank or a boat, bmw have better response, but both are expensive for the reliability level. i like this suv because it looks sexy, high perfomance, but im sure its a gas guzzler not to mention the headache of fixing any repairs if needed.

[@thuglife4ever721]

@nando8nando How does it suck?

[@ActionArcadeHQ]

0 to 60 in 4.0s for a 5180 pound car is pretty damn good

[@kezboy1]

is it jsut me, or does it seem wrong this has more HP than an audi r8 v10? i mean shouldnt a supercar be able to beat an suv.

[@mazda6tuner99]

Get an srt8 jeep and supercharge it and exhaust if you can't afford this, or if you dont like that sound, you can can never go wrong with full exhaust on american v8s. 4 seconds to 60 is quick. tune it for more boost and get in the 3's

[@47ambrose42jpm]

I'd get one.

[@robert_trevino369]

Do an off-road test.

[@MegaSridhar123]

I'm buying this

[@YourLoyalDeserter]

Give me one reason to have this over an M5 Touring.

[@pauliswaycool]

@BigBoss13198 they are with the new m5

[@radar3699]

@CalebRulez2 the M division is way better. AMG just stick a huge engine in there cars and dont change much where the M division change almost everything... thats why there are more AMG models than M models. because it takes waaaaaaaay longer to create an M model than an AMG model.

[@Mzee1084]

For $90k you can afford a decent SUV and a fast sports car. This is for people who have too much money than they know what to do with.

[@T966ER]

And the point of this car is..?

[@1kounter]

@WTFGUY956 it's not an offroader

[@tulloman]

very very beautiful car

[@ooharloo]

Madness!! 5k lbs and can do 0-60 4seconds!? Wow... Even more impressive is the 60-0.... Geezzz just don't see the use of a performance SUV...

[@deputydude]

0-60 in 4 seconds. Crazy 1/4 mile. now I ask...why? no club would let you Autocross or road race this thing without signing a 10 page liability waiver...

[@cllcn888]

this is an odd thing... i prefer the x5 or x1

[@NAKAKATAKOTAKO]

It is called the X sick M!

[@BigBoss13198]

why didnt BMW put that engine in the M5??

[@DEF90JAM]

@radar3699 AMG has the SLS and SL black series

[@joein610]

I Love my X6M,, Its very unique! and you don't see any of them on the street..

[@11094DEREK]

@AhmedAltima08 its nicer than what u drive probably

[@StuinthaHouse]

I think this should be called the X6 Sport, not the X6M.

[@PIchillin456]

It's not ok that this car weighs 1,000 lbs. more than my body-on-frame 1998 Mercury Mountaineer with AWD when they're basically the same size. I don't care if there's more technology in this thing and more metal for crash-worthiness. That all shouldn't add a half-ton to a car's weight. Also this is a modern, more efficient, premium drinking, lower-displacement motor, with a significantly better power to weight ratio than my Mountaineer and yet they get the same gas mileage. That's pathetic.

[@Cramos2174]

@blackseries99 Mom jokes? AMG image? = Mercedes fan kid. Hahahahaha

[@AlternativeUses]

proof that money does not = taste

[@n9athan]

@TheVasquez112 yeah? cadillac cts-v wagon, costs less and is faster. If you want to go cheap there is the subaru wrx sti premium and the list does on. You cant really justify this car, horrible fuel efficiency, not a lot of room, not very fast, and not nice to look at. It does a lot, but it doesn't do any of it well.

[@CarolinaAching]

MY BABY

[@lostchildren]

Lets create an SUV that can't haul, go off road or even snow, with minimal space in the cargo area, no head room and the most ugly exterior we can come up with. Next , lets create a 3 series convertible soft top that wont open.

[@blackseries99]

@Cramos2174 --I dont want to argue with someone who have the mentality of 13yr old kid.

[@TACOwizard91394]

i highly doubt this thing does 0-60 in 4 seconds flat

[@markmarshall39]

@Mzee1084 so true, we are a materialistic country!!!

[@Thunderboardautos]

Nor to 60 is in 4.7 secs! not 4secs

[@JamaicanMeCrazy]

so who's gonna race this thing? It's an suv.......SAV

[@mcximus]

4.0 sec to 60mph. Wow.

[@n9athan]

BMW joined the the "automakers that make pointless cars" club

[@DualofChaos]

I can't wait to see this engine in a more deserving car (M5). But I am going to miss that V10. Its kind of funny but this only seats 4 and the M5 seats 5? Ok :(

[@rangerover06sc]

.........um i think this video is a little late

[@StalePhish]

@rojm Expensive!

[@TheTerr0rbyte]

the x6 is already pointless, and its now getting more so in M

[@Hello6761]

Only 2 and a half years late

[@chris2586]

This is not a SUV.

[@swazimilk]

Screw the M division for making this car!

[@Bret3030]

there is a video of one doing 200mph on my channel

[@CJAEY]

Bimmer, son I am disappoint

[@Mzee1084]

SUVs shouldn't be high performance like this. They should be based on practicality. Get a sports car or supercar if you want performance. What a stupid vehicle. And I love BMW and an M3 is one of my favorite cars.

[@youtubarrr]

just in time for $5 a gallon of gas. well I guess rich people don't care about gas price anyway.

[@Nequetrefi11]

meh, just pointless. I just cant wait for them to come up with the new M5, that will be something out of this planet (i hope)

[@B00F13]

The M3 sipped on too much gas and it went all to it's thighs. :/

[@aesmith8719]

no I don't have to admit anything

[@Cramos2174]

It's not a SUV, it's an SAC. For douche bags: Sports Activity Coupe.

[@holten75]

Some sort of suv but it looks ugly for a BMW design.

[@xXeFilmsXx]

4th?

[@mankaman3]

it only gets these numbers because its a car raised and the shape is exactly like a car but only like 2 inches taller in body hieght.. sad excuse for a suv

[@Cramos2174]

@blackseries99 A bike isn't faster than a RWD 4.0 V8. LOL

[@Calimustang86]

This is dumb i mean its amazingly fast and awsome but .. Ehh .. Just buy a g55 amg

[@TornTech]

The rear window is in this is non existant...
