Hey does the smokingtire tm agree vehicle prices are just outrageous these days. 130 for a sport suv? Does the actual parts differ enough to argue the price tag. What materials are used for the entire drivetrain.
@@EiteTryHard yes they are. That thing is faster than most supercars from 5-10 years ago....it's like the Dodge Demon. That big fucking hunk of Dodge is faster than a LaFerrari and this also punches well above it's price point, albeit not at the same level.
yea it was cool the first time when bmw put a v10 in the first gen x5, but now that we actually have performance...and I mean performance suvs we realize how wacky it is lol
Honestly I think it looks really cool, especially from the rear with those tail lights. Having said that, I've only owned the first and second gen X5Ms.
The regular X6 is ugly, in person this isn't so bad, neighbor has this exact spec X6M in fact and it's actually pretty nice looking. Another neighbor has a new M5 Competition also and honestly it's kind of bland, at least in white, if you didn't know what it was you wouldn't pay attention to it. That being said another person in here has an X7 M50i in that real nice blue and that's what I am picking every time over this.
@@sin-enithuigim5197 ok i can understand that, but in my mind it still doesn’t really make sense. I mean, to each their own ofc, but to me this just seems like a less practical X5 or a way too bulky 5 series touring (depending on your exact purpose for the car)
@@sin-enithuigim5197 in that case I can understand. As long as you’re happy, I suppose. Here in the Netherlands we have no purpose or even space for cars like this and especially not for American trucks. So they’re mostly just status symbols, hence my resentment
The single individual driving these type of cars is accurate now that I think about it. Matt hit the nail on the head again lol I used to work with a Doctor who had an X6 M he fits the type of person u expect to see driving these cars
Thank god Zach’s back lately...I never thought I’d say this but I actually think I get way more useful information out of Zachs reviews than I do Matt’s. Interesting how taste can change so drastically in just a matter of a year or 2
Cool review as always. A practical benefit of all these sloping hatchbacks versus the standard ones is that most of them allow opening the trunk with a hitch mounted bike rack in its vertical position. Huge practical benefit for cyclists. From the happy owner of a 440 GC.
Lmao I thought it was just me getting nauseous with the camera angle. Jesus Christ +1 @ all the other comments saying how bad it is... It's really bad 😅😂😂
@@lucascla what i mean is bmw was kind of the “first” to make this whole coupe suv platform mainstream with the original x6 like a decade ago, and shortly after Mercedes released their own version and then Audi etc etc
@@andeleputo89 The two are the same, just the shape is different. Unless you carry full boot most of the time, you won't need all of the space the X5 has. So some people prefer the X6.
I really want to see your thoughts on an Alfa Stelvio Quadrifoglio. Seeing that you are so impressed by these SUVs and that Levante Trofeo from last year. That car really deserves the exposure to your audience. It's smaller and lighter than the other fast SUVs as well as has more Ferrari influence than any of them. It's also a little more sorted than the Giulia.
So many cars today look like the caricatures of cars that developers used to put in video games because they couldn't secure the license to use the real ones
Good thing I read that the camera angle was a mistake before I watched the video 😂😂 Love the X6M, I have to get one when the price comes down to 70k ish 😅😅
This vehicle really looks like what concept cars looked like and anticipated in the late 80s & 90s. I remember concept designs with oversized rims then profile with that crossover look. Basically on/off road track monsters. Would you take this M6 to the spot you took the Bronco & Defender? Drive fast off road...?
The rotating camera made my nauseas as fuck and gave a confusing perspective... it trailed off towards the edge of the corner and was very unnatural to watch. you look towards the apex when turning in, and this camera points away from it. super weird.
Camera comments aside if I wanted a 4 door SUV Coupe (I don't), I think that Cayenne GTS with the houndstooth seats is going to take the cake over this awful thing.
There are videos on youtube of the newest x5m being tracked and actually performing really well and gassing a lot of cars there. It obviously doesn't make as much sense as tracking an m5 but who doesn't want to track their family suv?! It's essentially the competition with the Lamborghini Urus, and if you watch videos on thererace, it keeps up very well!
That new camera just made me really dizzy lol Also I love the fact the Matt Farah pushes the cars much harder than Zachary. That’s why his single reviews are so much better.
I think the older ones are cooler even though they’re slower - whatever the last version that had hydraulic steering was is shockingly fun and just as comfortable as almost any luxury SUV
Always liked the looks of the X6 and that you don't see them everywhere. And let's face it the BMW X6 created the coupe style SUV that Porsche, Audi and Mercedes have all copied.
Drove one two days ago and thought it was pretty jarring but the roads in Oklahoma suck. Very fast, numb handling and needs ceramics. More go than brakes. Coming from F80 and G07 owner.
We forgot to disable the GoPro's stabilization after Matt reviewed the Ducati. That's why the camera is rotating. Sorry!
Unpopular opinion maybe? But i liked it🤷🏻♂️
Hey does the smokingtire tm agree vehicle prices are just outrageous these days. 130 for a sport suv? Does the actual parts differ enough to argue the price tag. What materials are used for the entire drivetrain.
yeah it's like it's reverse of looking into the corner
The rotating camera made me think you were going off on every turn
This. Quite distracting.
Same. Also was super distracting and feels like I'm going to be sick.
Yeah, the camera is awful. It's constantly pointing to where your eyes shouldn't be driving when you're driving fast.
Agreed. That camera motion was horrible.
@@DSP1337 Newer GoPros have this effect as well. The GoPro 7 like stabilization seems to work best for driving still.
Not a fan of the new rotating pov, it's hard to tell how fast you're going.
It made me nauseous!!
It's a setting in the GoPro. We can lock the POV.
I’d probably kill the rotating camera, boys. It’s kinda disorienting.
Don't like this new moving camera angle - So off putting!
Keep the go-pro's :)
Holy shit that camera made me think you were going off the road

Never thought that the x6 would look better than the m4, but here we are.
This thing looks like a cockroach
@@ForkInTheButt and the m4 looks like a cockroach that got stepped on.

@@jameshoffmann5643 exactly. What a perfect description of a horrid vehicle.

What is going on with that camera!?
Honestly I think it looks really cool, especially from the rear with those tail lights. Having said that, I've only owned the first and second gen X5Ms.
1:34 I had this color on a 1997 Audi A8. I don't remember what Audi called it, but I called it "eggplant".
Ummm... that looks....different😕
It's not ugly, but I don't want to be friends with the owner.
This.
Each to his own. I wouldn’t drive it if it were free. I’d sell it and buy something that didn’t make me puke a little bit every time I approached it.
It's ugly...
Exactly. If you pick this over an M5, I would like for you to stay the hell away from me.
The regular X6 is ugly, in person this isn't so bad, neighbor has this exact spec X6M in fact and it's actually pretty nice looking.

These are usually driven by the asshole that will speed up to not let you pass when your 3 cars ahead
Yeah because you drive a Toyota
A million subs boys! 🥳 right on Matt, Zach, and ST crew.
Am I on drugs or is the exterior shot different than normal?

Fixed camera, please.
I've always appreciated the unique styling of the X6.

@@trafalgalaw777 in the states they never bring these SUVs on track

I really like the bracing in the engine bay

This hideous Suv is the reason why we have useless fast coupe suv’s from every car manufacturer now.
Its because people are buying it, not because they've made it.

Kudos to Zack for not blinking when back came around.
I trust Matt 1000%! - ZK
I saw a well-preserved E30 3-series in a parking lot, that's when BMW's were great
The rotating camera really makes me feel like this car has the worst steering ever.
If you want this, why not just buy an Aztec and do a twin-turbo LS swap?

Oh man lol these two takes are the best. Keep doing your thing guys!!

The x6 is the sole reason this vehicle category exists. It looks great, it kills the competition and it evolves gen after gen. Period!
Any vehicle capable of 0-60 in the sub 4sec range that weighs OVER 5000lbs is SCARY AF!!!!
The M5 is sub 3 second
That sounds absolutely incredible.
Are you commenting in the wrong video?
@@gustavoflorio5383no. Some of us like these. I also like Mercedes AMG 4 cylinders and bro trucks. 🤷♂️

Non-Comp also comes with the strut tower brace
This car is SO BORING! Jesus!
I'm forcing myself to watch the whole thing only because I LOVE your TwoTakes.
“Big... cans.” 😂
You guys are nuts- the x6 is easily the best looking sloped back suv on the market
What's with the camera, I've never been car sick but this is making me nauseous!
I saw one of those today and it did NOT sound like that. Had the badging and everything. Shenanigans!
I still love it… yes it’s quirky in the back but I don’t like to have what everyone else has.
This makes as much sense as bolting a 1,000-lb. permanent cargo container on top of an M3.

Subscribed because Emilia said so

The RS Q8 is like a super aggressive, huge RS3. Which is a good thing I guess.

What have they done to the steering wheel..
I had to turn this of because of the POV camera - I'm unsure if it was intentional or not, but static is much better!
Unintentional. It was left on that setting after the Ducati review.
I kinda like the front end. Really weird rear end and the gap between the rear fender and the wheels is an eye sore.
