@Hamslamm: Funny how they use "The beauty of 4Wheel Drive", as Subaru repurposed that as "The Beauty of All wheel drive" 10 years later.

As much as I hate this thing, it'll probably sell pretty well.

Like some kind of gradual evolutionary shift based on food supply, we've seen the explosion of full-size truck SUVs (at $1.20/gal) change to CUVs (at 2.50/gal) to even more car-like CUVs (at > $3/gal).

Hopefully this ends in actual station wagons (but not at $5/gal).

Polar's right, this car has jowls in front. And please, can't they lower its ass? It looks like Daffy Duck when his ass gets kicked up to his shoulders. (I don't have the image or I'd embed it. I keed too)

Can we please turn off the ability for people to embed images in their comments? I find it rather annoying.

I go back and forth with the X6. I still prefer the Infiniti FX and the upcoming EX. Somehow those seem both a little more sporty and more versatile.

10 twinkies + BMW + intension of creating versatility - cargo capacity + Junior bacon cheeseburger + shockwave energy drink = X6.

the rear shots looks like it has so much filler (as in, rear valance, on top of rear valance, on top of rear valance.)

I dunno, no matter what you do to this thing it will never "wow" me. sort of like the Cayenne GTS which also carries on tons of plastic crap in an effort to create a sexy beautiful design.

It looks good for a current BMW model. But to quote Barack Obama, that "bar is so low that it's buried in the sand."

I have at least some affection for almost every BMW product. There is not one that I can't find something redeeming about and that I honestly wouldn't drive.... Until now...

This car is going to make the R class look like a sales smash

If it was just ugly, its pointlessness might be overshadowed by its disgusting ass. But it's just a hulking question mark that will plummet in popularity as soon as the next new hotness is stocked in Thousand Oaks.

This and the Clubman from the same company. I would have expected it from Chrysler in the late 90s. But BMW also makes the 135i. Too many Übermensch in the kitchen.

The cheapo plastic side and bumper cladding must make this a base 2.8 or 3.5-liter model, and in my opinion it makes it look better than the side-skirted V8 example on the stand in Detroit. Still hideous overall though, and with that ridiculous new BMW automatic shifter-by-wire that can be aptly described only as 'flaccid'.

This would be a great car if they photoshopped it 7/8ths scale vertically, and decreased ride height about 3 inches. I mean seriously, who is gonna off-road this thing? This is mom's car.
