It's a bird! It's a plane! No, It's the BMW X6?

Our Spies caught these recent photos of the upcoming BMW X6 crossover in testing.

Sources tell us it could launch in Frankfurt, this September.

You cant tell a single thing from all that camo... But I can tell it will have a similar headlights and tailights design to the X5.... I just hope so.

considering the lexus GL is a re-badged Toyota Prado and the new LX a bloated looking tundra...

zip it fanboy and stick to your lexus GS300!

I stand corrected Lexus dimwit.
GX, Not GL

so I'll just repeat what i said...
The GX is a Toyota Prado,
The New LC looks like a bloated Tundra, oh i meant the Lexus LX570.

now go look at www.alfuttaimmotors.com and tell me if you see the GX?

its not surprising i got mixed up with G"L" instead of the G"X" since its only offered in the US while rest of the world knows a when to more lexus than a toyota.

Might as well call it Lexus Prado and you'll still buy it right?

Lexus Clownboy, how ironic you would state that but nothing else from the previous messages.

But is this a tendency you have when you feel like your losing?

still looking for the GX? Tisk Tisk, its a toyota.

Im quite sure it will be smaller than the X5... more like the infinite QX45. Oh and you should know by now that BMW are the masters in camo... you cant tell a single thing from the pictures.

lol that's kind of smart. It's like car armor, but being used to disguise the actual car underneath. you can tell it's just a shell of sorts. Pretty ingenius. That way you can't even really try to "make out" what the shape of the car is.

pansy wannabe suvs?
the Land Cruiser is a 4x4.

the cayenne is ugly, but it drives better than a LC and can go off road, like the ml, range rover, RR sport while BMW X5 was never ever meant to go off road.

the GL/prado a smaller 4x4 drives like a truck. NOT a suv.

RX is a crossover than a suv (please don't dare say its got good handling)

so until the next gen rx comes out with a v8 &
sharper handling...Lexus & toyota have no actual SUV.

SUV= "Sports" utility vehicle.

the new X5 can go offroad... or at least way better than the old one. The engineers have tested it and the new xdrive is outstanding.

buckfush

The LC is an offroader, the X6 will be way more civilized. The LC looks like a box, the X6 looks like a car... big differences. Oh and the new LC which is going to be a 2008 model is even UGLY. The tail lights look like the LX570 concept and the front looks totally wrong...

Off road, in the dunes?
I had the BMW X5 4.6is and I've taken it on rough ground and a few dunes.

It was very uncomfortable since the chassis is very stiff and tuned to for sports handling.

Yes it can handle up to medium sized dunes, but it was a struggle and you never knew when it would get stuck.

+ it also has a low ground clearance which made it harder to navigate since you didn't want to damage the bumpers & undercarriage.

I know lots of people and including a of buddy of mine has taken his X5 4.8IS into the dunes like you would with a LC, it does do well but it does get stuck easily.

The lack a high-low gear ratio and limited diff means its lacks the ability of the ML, range rover and cayenne even with the xDrive.

Your X5 body kit looks like it was taken off the old generation X5 IS, looks good.

Miss mine so much...can't figure why there no longer a X5 IS version.

I still can't figure out why this vehicle will be built. The camo sheets add about an inch to the thickness of the car so you can't make out the styling details, BUT with the expected sloped rear roof it'll look sort of like a smoothed over Pontiac Aztek.
They have the X5 so why do they need this?

The new xdrive is superior to the old one...

Im not saying its on top of other offroaders, but its not bad..

well thanks, i did see these long back.

I have no idea the point of this but its what i said. it can handle rough ground like the video you've shown me. I recognize the place and if its the one, i've been there for camping too

Even the dunes, It does pretty well but it can't tackle the bigger ones or taken them at steep gradients like you would with a patrol for example.

So we're both saying the whole thing?
